Sirach 17:29-31
Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
29 How great is the mercy of the Lord,
and his forgiveness for those who turn to him!
30 For all things cannot be in men,[a]
since a son of man is not immortal.
31 What is brighter than the sun? Yet its light fails.[b]
So flesh and blood devise evil.
