Ben Sira 41:4

Listen to Ben Sira 41:4
4 And why art thou against the pleasure of the Most High? There is no inquisition in the grave, whether thou have lived ten or a hundred or a thousand years.

Ben Sira 41:4 In-Context

2 O death, acceptable is thy sentence unto the needy, and unto him whose strength faileth, that is now in the last age, and is vexed with all things, and to him that despaireth and hath lost patience!
3 Fear not the sentence of death; remember them that have been before thee and that come after, for this is the sentence of the Lord over all flesh.
4 And why art thou against the pleasure of the Most High? There is no inquisition in the grave, whether thou have lived ten or a hundred or a thousand years.
5 The children of sinners are abominable children, and they that are conversant in the dwelling of the ungodly.
6 The inheritance of sinners' children shall perish, and their posterity shall have a perpetual reproach.
