1 Blessed is the man that hath not slipped with his mouth, and is not pricked with the multitude of sins.

Ben Sira 14:1 In-Context

1 Blessed is the man that hath not slipped with his mouth, and is not pricked with the multitude of sins.

2 Blessed is he whose conscience hath not condemned him, and who is not fallen from his hope in the Lord.

3 Riches are not comely for a niggard; and what should an envious man do with money?

4 He that gathereth by defrauding his own soul gathereth for others, who shall spend his goods riotously.

5 He that is evil to himself, to whom will he be good? He shall not take pleasure in his goods.
