Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752

Ecclesiasticus 33:15-21 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

15. Good is set against evil, and life against death: so also is the sinner against a just man. And so look upon all the works of the most High. Two and two, and one against another.

16. And I awaked last of all, and as one that gathereth after the grapegatherers.

17. In the blessing of God I also have hoped: and as one that gathereth grapes, have I filled the winepress.

18. See that I have not laboured for myself only, but for all that seek discipline.

19. Hear me, ye great men, and all ye people, and hearken with your ears, ye rulers of the church.

20. Give not to son or wife, brother or friend, power over thee while thou livest; and give not thy estate to another, lest then repent, and thou entreat for the same.

21. As long as thou livest, and hast breath in thee, let no man change thee.
