Ecclesiasticus 11:11 Context
9Striue not in a matter that concerneth thee not: and sit not in iudgement with sinners. 10My sonne, meddle not with many matters: for if thou meddle much, thou shalt not be innocent: and if thou follow after, thou shalt not obtaine, neither shalt thou escape by flying. 11There is one that laboureth and taketh paines, and maketh haste, and is so much the more behinde. 12Againe, there is another that is slow, and hath neede of helpe, wanting abilitie, and full of pouertie, yet the eye of the Lord looked vpon him for good, and set him vp from his low estate, 13And lifted vp his head from miserie, so that many that saw it, marueiled at him.
