Sirach 40:7 CPDV

⁵  And in the time of rest upon his bed, the sleep of the night changes his knowledge.

⁶  There is little or no rest, and sleep is taken from him, as if on a day of keeping watch.

⁷  He is disturbed by a vision of his heart, as if he had escaped in a day of warfare. In the time of his salvation, he rose up and wondered that there was no fear.

⁸  This is so with all flesh, from man even to cattle, but upon sinners it is seven times as great.

⁹  Add to this: death, bloodshed, contention, and the spear, oppression, famine, and affliction, and scourges.
