Ecclesiasticus 41:4 Context
1O death, how bitter is the remembrance of thee to a man that liveth at rest in his possessions, unto the man that hath nothing to vex him, and that hath prosperity in all things: yea, unto him that is yet able to receive meat! 2O death, acceptable is thy sentence unto the needy, and unto him whose strength faileth, that is now in the last age, and is vexed with all things, and to him that despaireth, and hath lost patience! 3Fear not the sentence of death, remember them that have been before thee, and that come after; for this is the sentence of the Lord over all flesh. 4And why art thou against the pleasure of the most High? there is no inquisition in the grave, whether thou have lived ten, or an hundred, or a thousand years. 5The children of sinners are abominable children, and they that are conversant in the dwelling of the ungodly. 6The inheritance of sinners' children shall perish, and their posterity shall have a perpetual reproach. 7The children will complain of an ungodly father, because they shall be reproached for his sake.
