Ben Sira 30:17

Listen to Ben Sira 30:17

17 melior est mors quam vita amara et requies aeterna quam languor perseverans

Ben Sira 30:17 In-Context

15 salus animae in sanctitate iustitiae et melior omni auro et argento et corpus validum quam census inmensus

16 non est census super censum salutis corporis et non est oblectatio super cordis gaudium

17 melior est mors quam vita amara et requies aeterna quam languor perseverans

18 bona absconsa in ore cluso quasi adpositiones epularum circumpositae sepulchro

19 quid proderit libatio idolo nec enim manducat nec odorabitur
