Man’s Works Do Follow After Him (By Ben Sira)

Do good to the righteous and reward will be yours,
if not from them, from the LORD.
Happy those whose mouth causes them no grief, those who are not stung by remorse for sin. 
Happy are those whose conscience does not reproach them, those who have not lost hope. 
Do not deprive yourself of good things now or let a choice portion escape you. 
Will you not leave your riches to others, and your earnings to be divided by lot? 
All human deeds surely perish. 
The works they do follow after them.
No good comes to those who give comfort to the wicked, nor is it an act of mercy that they do. 
In prosperity we cannot know our friends; in adversity an enemy will not remain concealed. 
When one is successful even an enemy is friendly; but in adversity even a friend disappears.
Never trust your enemies, for their wickedness is like corrosion in bronze.
Even though they act deferentially and peaceably toward you, take care to be on your guard against them. 
Treat them as those who reveal secrets, and be certain that in the end there will still be envy. 
With their lips enemies speak sweetly, but in their heart they scheme to plunge you into the abyss. 
Though enemies have tears in their eyes, given the chance, they will never have enough of your blood. 
Amen.
