Sirach 17:26-28
Revised Standard Version
26 Return to the Most High and turn away from iniquity,[a]
and hate abominations intensely.
27 Who will sing praises to the Most High in Hades,
as do those who are alive and give thanks?
28 From the dead, as from one who does not exist, thanksgiving has ceased;
he who is alive and well sings the Lord’s praises.
