Sirach 11:22 CPDV

²⁰  But he does not know how much time will pass before death approaches, and then he must leave everything behind to others and die.

²¹  Stand fast in your covenant, and become familiar with it, and grow old in the work of your commandments.

²²  You should not spend time in the works of sinners. Instead, trust in God and remain in your own place.

²³  For it is easy, in the eyes of God, to make a pauper suddenly rich.

²⁴  The blessing of God hurries to reward the just man, and in a fleeting hour his advancement bears fruit.
