Sir 21:3
King James Version
“All iniquity is as a two edged sword, the wounds whereof cannot be healed.”
Context
1My son, hast thou sinned? do so no more, but ask pardon for thy former sins.
2Flee from sin as from the face of a serpent: for if thou comest too near it, it will bite thee: the teeth thereof are as the teeth of a lion, slaying the souls of men.
3All iniquity is as a two edged sword, the wounds whereof cannot be healed.
4To terrify and do wrong will waste riches: thus the house of proud men shall be made desolate.
5A prayer out of a poor man’s mouth reacheth to the ears of God, and his judgment cometh speedily.
6He that hateth to be reproved is in the way of sinners: but he that feareth the Lord will repent from his heart.
