15Their ways are always before him,
they will not be hid from his eyes.
God is judge. Sir.17.15-24
17He appointed a ruler for every nation,
but Israel is the Lord's own portion.
 οὐκ ἐκρύβησαν αἱ ἀδικίαι αὐτῶν ἀπ' αὐτοῦ,
καὶ πᾶσαι αἱ ἁμαρτίαι αὐτῶν ἔναντι Κυρίου.
19All their works are as the sun before him,
and his eyes are continually upon their ways.
 μετὰ ταῦτα ἐξαναστήσεται καὶ ἀνταποδώσει αὐτοῖς,
καὶ τὸ ἀνταπόδομα αὐτῶν εἰς κεφαλὴν αὐτῶν ἀποδώσει·
20Their iniquities are not hidden from him,
and all their sins are before the Lord.
 πλὴν μετανοοῦσιν ἔδωκεν ἐπάνοδον,
καὶ παρεκάλεσεν ἐκλείποντας ὑπομονήν.
22A man's almsgiving is like a signet with the Lord
and he will keep a person's kindness like the apple of his eye.
 
23Afterward he will arise and requite them,
and he will bring their recompense on their heads.
 ἐπάναγε ἐπὶ ὕψιστον καὶ ἀπόστρεφε ἀπὸ ἀδικίας,
καὶ σφόδρα μίσησον βδέλυγμα.
24Yet to those who repent he grants a return,
and he encourages those whose endurance is failing.
