Ben Sirach 27:30-28:7
New Revised Standard Version,
Anglicised Catholic Edition
| Anger and Vengeance
|
| 30 Anger and wrath, these also are abominations,
| yet a sinner holds on to them.
| 28 The vengeful will face the Lord’s vengeance,
| for he keeps a strict account of[a] their sins.
| 2 Forgive your neighbour the wrong he has done,
| and then your sins will be pardoned when you pray.
| 3 Does anyone harbour anger against another,
| and expect healing from the Lord?
| 4 If someone has no mercy towards another like himself,
| can he then seek pardon for his own sins?
| 5 If a mere mortal harbours wrath,
| who will make an atoning sacrifice for his sins?
| 6 Remember the end of your life, and set enmity aside;
| remember corruption and death, and be true to the Commandments.
| 7 Remember the Commandments, and do not be angry with your neighbour;
| remember the Covenant of the Most High, and overlook faults.
