Ecclesiasticus 10:19 They that fear the Lord are a sure seed, and they that love him an honourable plant: they that regard not the law are a dishonourable seed they that transgress the commandments are a deceivable seed. Ecclesiasticus 34:16 For the eyes of the Lord are upon them that love him, he is their mighty protection and strong stay, a defence from heat, and a cover from the sun at noon, a preservation from stumbling, and an help from falling. Ecclesiasticus 51:2 For thou art my defender and helper, and has preserved my body from destruction, and from the snare of the slanderous tongue, and from the lips that forge lies, and has been mine helper against mine adversaries: Colossians 3:6 For which things' sake the wrath of God cometh on the children of disobedience:

This chapter contains a gem of encouragement for the devout child of God in a convulsed world of crimes without end that spews unbelief and discouragement. It is the section of v. 13-17. If you have misgivings about embracing this book as revelation from the Lord because it is not 'canonical ' so to speak, mind that vs. 16-17 connects directly to the vision of Christ reigning through the Gospel of his glory in Isaiah 32:1-3 " Behold, a king shall reign in righteousness, and princes shall rule in judgment. 2 And a man the glorified Christ, our Savior shall be as an hiding place from the wind, and a covert from the tempest as rivers of water in a dry place, as the shadow of a great rock in a weary land. 3 And the eyes of them that see shall not be dim, and the ears of them that hear shall hearken. " Compare with v. 16-17 referred to above: "For the eyes of the Lord are upon them that love him, he is their mighty protection and strong stay, a defense from heat, and a cover from the sun at noon, a preservation from stumbling, and an help from falling. 17. He raiseth up the soul, and lighteneth the eyes: he giveth health, life, and blessing " Both passages are harbingers if blessing to the man of faith!

Ecclesiasticus is not the same as Ecclesiastes. It is a very different book with a different author.
