Sirach 34
- 1 The hopes of a man void of understanding are vain and false: and dreams lift up fools.
- 2 Whoso regardeth dreams is like him that catcheth at a shadow, and followeth after the wind.
- 3 The vision of dreams is the resemblance of one thing to another, even as the likeness of a face to a face.
- 4 Of an unclean thing what can be cleansed? and from that thing which is false what truth can come?
- 5 Divinations, and soothsayings, and dreams, are vain: and the heart fancieth, as a woman’s heart in travail.
- 6 If they be not sent from the most High in thy visitation, set not thy heart upon them.
- 7 For dreams have deceived many, and they have failed that put their trust in them.
- 8 The law shall be found perfect without lies: and wisdom is perfection to a faithful mouth.
- 9 A man that hath travelled knoweth many things; and he that hath much experience will declare wisdom.
- 10 He that hath no experience knoweth little: but he that hath travelled is full of prudence.
- 11 When I travelled, I saw many things; and I understand more than I can express.
- 12 I was ofttimes in danger of death: yet I was delivered because of these things.
- 13 The spirit of those that fear the Lord shall live; for their hope is in him that saveth them.
- 14 Whoso feareth the Lord shall not fear nor be afraid; for he is his hope.
- 15 Blessed is the soul of him that feareth the Lord: to whom doth he look? and who is his strength?
- 16 For the eyes of the Lord are upon them that love him, he is their mighty protection and strong stay, a defence from heat, and a cover from the sun at noon, a preservation from stumbling, and an help from falling.
- 17 He raiseth up the soul, and lighteneth the eyes: he giveth health, life, and blessing.
- 18 He that sacrificeth of a thing wrongfully gotten, his offering is ridiculous; and the gifts of unjust men are not accepted.
- 19 The most High is not pleased with the offerings of the wicked; neither is he pacified for sin by the multitude of sacrifices.
- 20 Whoso bringeth an offering of the goods of the poor doeth as one that killeth the son before his father’s eyes.
- 21 The bread of the needy is their life: he that defraudeth him thereof is a man of blood.
- 22 He that taketh away his neighbour’s living slayeth him; and he that defraudeth the labourer of his hire is a bloodshedder.
- 23 When one buildeth, and another pulleth down, what profit have they then but labour?
- 24 When one prayeth, and another curseth, whose voice will the Lord hear?
- 25 He that washeth himself after the touching of a dead body, if he touch it again, what availeth his washing?
- 26 So is it with a man that fasteth for his sins, and goeth again, and doeth the same: who will hear his prayer? or what doth his humbling profit him?

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.
