Sirach 15:15-20
-
15 If thou wilt, to keep the commandments, and to perform acceptable faithfulness.
-
16 He hath set fire and water before thee: stretch forth thy hand unto whether thou wilt.
-
17 Before man is life and death; and whether him liketh shall be given him.
-
18 For the wisdom of the Lord is great, and he is mighty in power, and beholdeth all things:
-
19 And his eyes are upon them that fear him, and he knoweth every work of man.
-
20 He hath commanded no man to do wickedly, neither hath he given any man licence to sin.
