Löydetty 1884 Tulokset: Sin

• A man who breaks his marriage vows says to himself, "Who sees me? Darkness surrounds me, and the walls hide me, and no one sees me. Why should I fear? The Most High will not take notice of my sins." (Ecclesiasticus 24, 18)

• Whoever obeys me will not be put to shame, and those who work with my help will not sin." (Ecclesiasticus 25, 22)

• Any iniquity is insignificant compared to a wife's iniquity; may a sinner's lot befall her! (Ecclesiasticus 26, 19)

• From a woman sin had its beginning, and because of her we all die. (Ecclesiasticus 26, 24)

• A good wife is a great blessing; she will be granted among the blessings of the man who fears the Lord. (Ecclesiasticus 27, 3)

• Like the sun rising in the heights of the Lord, so is the beauty of a good wife in her well-ordered home. (Ecclesiasticus 27, 16)

• At two things my heart is grieved, and because of a third anger comes over me: a warrior in want through poverty, and intelligent men who are treated contemptuously; a man who turns back from righteousness to sin -- the Lord will prepare him for the sword! (Ecclesiasticus 27, 28)

• A merchant can hardly keep from wrongdoing, and a tradesman will not be declared innocent of sin. (Ecclesiasticus 27, 29)

• Many have committed sin for a trifle, and whoever seeks to get rich will avert his eyes. (Ecclesiasticus 28, 1)

• As a stake is driven firmly into a fissure between stones, so sin is wedged in between selling and buying. (Ecclesiasticus 28, 2)

• A lion lies in wait for prey; so does sin for the workers of iniquity. (Ecclesiasticus 28, 10)
