Sirach 25:9-11
Common English Bible
9 Happy is the one
who has gained good sense
and who is passing this along
to listening ears.
10 How great is one who finds Wisdom,
but no one does better
than the one who fears the Lord.
11 Fear of the Lord surpasses everything;
those who possess it are incomparable.[a]
