Sirach 11:25
King James VersionSource notes
“In the day of prosperity there is a forgetfulness of affliction: and in the day of affliction there is no more remembrance of prosperity.”
Context
22The blessing of the Lord is in the reward of the godly, and suddenly he maketh his blessing flourish.
23Say not, What profit is there of my service? and what good things shall I have hereafter?
24Again, say not, I have enough, and possess many things, and what evil shall I have hereafter?
25In the day of prosperity there is a forgetfulness of affliction: and in the day of affliction there is no more remembrance of prosperity.
26For it is an easy thing unto the Lord in the day of death to reward a man according to his ways.
27The affliction of an hour maketh a man forget pleasure: and in his end his deeds shall be discovered.
28Judge none blessed before his death: for a man shall be known in his children.
