Sirach 14
- 1 Blessed is the man that hath not slipped with his mouth, and is not pricked with the multitude of sins.
- 2 Blessed is he whose conscience hath not condemned him, and who is not fallen from his hope in the Lord.
- 3 Riches are not comely for a niggard: and what should an envious man do with money?
- 4 He that gathereth by defrauding his own soul gathereth for others, that shall spend his goods riotously.
- 5 He that is evil to himself, to whom will he be good? he shall not take pleasure in his goods.
- 6 There is none worse than he that envieth himself; and this is a recompence of his wickedness.
- 7 And if he doeth good, he doeth it unwillingly; and at the last he will declare his wickedness.
- 8 The envious man hath a wicked eye; he turneth away his face, and despiseth men.
- 9 A covetous man’s eye is not satisfied with his portion; and the iniquity of the wicked drieth up his soul.
- 10 A wicked eye envieth his bread, and he is a niggard at his table.
- 11 My son, according to thy ability do good to thyself, and give the Lord his due offering.
- 12 Remember that death will not be long in coming, and that the covenant of the grave is not shewed unto thee.
- 13 Do good unto thy friend before thou die, and according to thy ability stretch out thy hand and give to him.
- 14 Defraud not thyself of the good day, and let not the part of a good desire overpass thee.
- 15 Shalt thou not leave thy travails unto another? and thy labours to be divided by lot?
- 16 Give, and take, and sanctify thy soul; for there is no seeking of dainties in the grave.
- 17 All flesh waxeth old as a garment: for the covenant from the beginning is, Thou shalt die the death.
- 18 As of the green leaves on a thick tree, some fall, and some grow; so is the generation of flesh and blood, one cometh to an end, and another is born.
- 19 Every work rotteth and consumeth away, and the worker thereof shall go withal.
- 20 Blessed is the man that doth meditate good things in wisdom, and that reasoneth of holy things by his understanding.
- 21 He that considereth her ways in his heart shall also have understanding in her secrets.
- 22 Go after her as one that traceth, and lie in wait in her ways.
- 23 He that prieth in at her windows shall also hearken at her doors.
- 24 He that doth lodge near her house shall also fasten a pin in her walls.
- 25 He shall pitch his tent nigh unto her, and shall lodge in a lodging where good things are.
- 26 He shall set his children under her shelter, and shall lodge under her branches.
- 27 By her he shall be covered from heat, and in her glory shall he dwell.

King James Version (1769) with Strongs Numbers and Morphology and CatchWords, including Apocrypha (without glosses) (kjva - 3.1)
2023-07-19English (en)
This is the King James Version of the Holy Bible (also known as the Authorized Version) with embedded Strong's Numbers. The rights to the base text are held by the Crown of England.
The Strong's numbers in the OT were obtained from The Bible Foundation: http://www.bf.org. The NT Strong's data was obtained from The KJV2003 Project at CrossWire: http://www.crosswire.org. These mechanisms provide a useful means for looking up the exact original language word in a lexicon that is keyed to Strong's numbers.
Special thanks to the volunteers at Bible Foundation for keying the Hebrew/English data and of Project KJV2003 for working toward the completion of synchronizing the English phrases to the Stephanas Textus Receptus, and to Dr. Maurice Robinson for providing the base Greek text with Strong's and Morphology.
We are also appreciative of formatting markup that was provided by Michael Paul Johnson at http://www.ebible.org. Their time and generosity to contribute such for the free use of the Body of Christ is a great blessing and this derivitive work could not have been possible without these efforts of so many individuals.
Version 3.1 incorporates a more recent set of TR data from Dr. Maurice Robinson than was used in all the earlier versions. The TR data was obtained in 2016 from the Greek New Testament sources website
https://sites.google.com/a/wmail.fi/greeknt/home/greeknt
This was integrated into the OSIS source files of an intermediate version 2.9a hosted at
https://www.crosswire.org/~dmsmith/kjv2011/kjv2.9a/
It is in this spirit that we in turn offer the KJV2003 Project text freely for any purpose.
Any copyright that might be obtained for this effort is held by CrossWire Bible Society © 2003-2023 and CrossWire Bible Society hereby grants a general public license to use this text for any purpose.
