Sirach 10:8–9

The Cambridge Paragraph Bible of the Authorized English VersionOther versions

8Because of unrighteous dealings, injuries, and riches got by deceit,

bThe kingdom is translated from one people to another.

9Why is fearth and ashes proud?

There is not a more wicked thing than a covetous man:

For such an one setteth his own soul to sale;

Because while he liveth ghe casteth away his bowels.
