Ecclesiasticus 11:25

Ecclesiasticus 11:25 Context

²²The blessing of the Lord is in the reward of the godly, and suddenly he maketh his blessing flourish. ²³Say not, What profit is there of my service? and what good things shall I have hereafter? ²⁴Again, say not, I have enough, and possess many things, and what evil shall I have hereafter? ²⁵In the day of prosperity there is a forgetfulness of affliction: and in the day of affliction there is no more remembrance of prosperity. ²⁶For it is an easy thing unto the Lord in the day of death to reward a man according to his ways. ²⁷The affliction of an hour maketh a man forget pleasure: and in his end his deeds shall be discovered. ²⁸Judge none blessed before his death: for a man shall be known in his children.
