This OET Readers’ Version was designed to be used with the Literal Version alongside, so you won’t get the best understanding from this single viewpoint. This is still an early look into the drafted text of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check the text in advance before using in public.

God sees and judges everyone’s actions

Sir 17:15–24

15 Their ways are ever before him.

They will not be hidden from his eyes. 16 [fn]

17 Because[fn] every nation he appointed a ruler,

but Yisrael (Israel) is the master’s portion. 18 [fn]

19 All their works are as clear as the sun before him.

His eyes are continually upon their ways.

20 Their iniquities are not hidden from him.

All their sins are before the master. 21 [fn]

22 With him the alms of a man is as a signet.

He will keep a man’s kindness as the pupil of the eye.[fn]

23 Afterwards he will rise up and repay them,

and render their repayment upon their head.

24 However to those who repent he grants a return.

He comforts those who are losing hope.
