38 LIBER IESU FILII SIRACH Syrach - Wycliffe Bible(14c) Ecclesiasticus - Douay Rheims(17c) Reference
16Fili, in mortuum produc lacrimas, et quasi dira passus incipe plorare: et secundum judicium contege corpus illius, et non despicias sepulturam illius. Mourning. Sir.38.16-23
17Propter delaturam autem amare fer luctum illius uno die, et consolare propter tristitiam:  
18et fac luctum secundum meritum ejus uno die, vel duobus, propter detractionem:  
19a tristitia enim festinat mors, et cooperit virtutem, et tristitia cordis flectit cervicem.  
20In abductione permanet tristitia, et substantia inopis secundum cor ejus.  
21Ne dederis in tristitia cor tuum, sed repelle eam a te, et memento novissimorum.  
22Noli oblivisci, neque enim est conversio: et huic nihil proderis, et teipsum pessimabis.  
23Memor esto judicii mei: sic enim erit et tuum: mihi heri, et tibi hodie.  

Notes: For the Bible in Latin, I have used the Vulgate text at the Clementine Vulgate Project website.
The only English translations from the Vulgate that are readily available are John Wycliffe's 14th century English Bible, and the the Douay Rheims/Challoner versions. I have used the Wycliffe Bible text from the Wesley Centre website, where you can view this Bible in a number of formats. I have used the Douay Rheims Text at the Unbound Bible website. You can view the Douay Rheims Bible in a more readable format at DRBO.ORG website.
The katapi New Study Bible reference section: displays links to parallel passages. Passage headings are generally as printed in the Bible Society's "Good News Bible", 1976. To view the Greek Text on this page, you will need a Unicode font capable of displaying extended Greek characters. To find out about Unicode fonts, go to Alan Wood's Unicode Resources.
