Sirach 23:25 CPDV

²³  And a man who is wicked in the desires of his flesh will not desist until he has kindled a fire.

²⁴  To a man of fornication, all bread is sweet; he will not tire of transgression, to the very end.

²⁵  Every man who transgresses his own bed has contempt for his own soul. And so he says: 'Who can see me?

²⁶  Darkness surrounds me, and the walls enclose me, and no one catches sight of me. Whom should I fear? The Most High will not remember my offenses.'

²⁷  And he does not understand that God's eye sees all things. For fear within a man such as this drives away from him both the fear of God and the eyes of those men who fear God.
