Sirach 15:11–14

11 Do not say, “Because of the Lord I left the right way”;

for he will not do what he hates.

12 Do not say, “It was he who led me astray”;

for he had no need of a sinful man.

13 The Lord hates all abominations,

and they are not loved by those who fear him.

14 It was he who created man in the beginning,

and he left him in the power of his own inclination.
