Sirach 16:16-18

Common English Bible

¹⁷ Don’t say, “I’ll be hidden from the Lord,”
    and “Who from on high
    will call me to mind?
    Among a great many people,
    I’ll never be recognized;
    for what am I in such a vast creation?
¹⁸ Look at the heavens,
indeed the highest heavens;
    the abyss and the earth
    will tremble at the Lord’s visitation.^[a]
