Sirach 16:14 CPDV

¹²  For mercy and wrath are with him. He is powerful in forgiveness, and he pours forth wrath.

¹³  As is his mercy, so also is his correction; he judges a man according to his works.

¹⁴  The sinner, in his violations, will not escape; but the patience of the One who shows mercy will not be diminished.

¹⁵  Every mercy will make a place for each man, according to the merit of his works, and according to the understanding of his sojourn.

¹⁶  You should not say: 'I am hidden from God,' or, 'Who, from on high, will take note of me?'
