17 And you will be built up in justice, and you will be remembered in the day of tribulation. And your sins will dissolve like ice in warm weather.
Sir3:15 In the day of thine affliction it shall be remembered; thy sins also shall melt away, as the ice in the fair warm weather.
18 What an evil form has he who forsakes his father! And whoever exasperates his mother is accursed by God.
Sir3:16 He that forsaketh his father is as a blasphemer; and he that angereth his mother is cursed: of God.
19 Son, perform your works in meekness, and you shall be loved beyond the glory of men.
Sir3:17 My son, go on with thy business in meekness; so shalt thou be beloved of him that is approved.
