Sirach 44:6-10

{44:6} There are men rich in virtue, who make a study of beauty, who live in peacefulness in their houses.
{44:7} All these obtained glory in their generations, and they had praise in their days.
{44:8} They left behind a name for those who were born of them, so that their praises might be described.
{44:9} But for some of them, there is no memorial. They have passed away as if they had never existed; and they have become as if they had never been born, and their sons along with them.
{44:10} But these were men of mercy, whose pious deeds have not failed.
