“Weep for the dead!
They have left the light behind.
Weep for the foolish!
They have left intelligence behind.
Weep less bitterly for the dead!
They are at rest.
The life of the fool is
Worse than death.
Mourning for the dead
Lasts seven days.
But for the foolish ungodly,
It lasts all their lives.”
Sirach makes an interesting comparison between the foolish living persons and the dead people. You should weep for the dead because they no longer see the light of day. However, you should also weep for the foolish ones because they have left intelligence behind. At least the dead have rest, but the fools live a life worse than death. Mourning for the dead should last 7 days, but you should mourn a lifetime for the foolish and ungodly people because they have no intelligence.
