Sirach 18:12-14

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹² The compassion of man is toward his neighbour: but the mercy of God is upon all flesh.

¹³ He hath mercy, and teacheth, and correcteth, as a shepherd doth his flock.

¹⁴ He hath mercy on him that receiveth the discipline of mercy, and that maketh haste in his judgments.
