Sir 17:31
King James Version
“What is brighter than the sun? yet the light thereof faileth; and flesh and blood will imagine evil.”
Context
28Thanksgiving perisheth from the dead, as from one that is not: the living and sound in heart shall praise the Lord.
29How great is the lovingkindness of the Lord our God, and his compassion unto such as turn unto him in holiness!
30For all things cannot be in men, because the son of man is not immortal.
31What is brighter than the sun? yet the light thereof faileth; and flesh and blood will imagine evil.
32He vieweth the power of the height of heaven; and all men are but earth and ashes.
