Sirach 15:9-11
Wycliffe Bible
9 Praising is not fair in the mouth of a sinner, for he is not sent of the Lord (or it was not sent to him from the Lord).
10 For why wisdom went forth from God; forsooth praising shall stand nigh (to) the wisdom of God, and it shall be plenteous [or abound] in a faithful mouth, and the Lord shall give it to him.
11 Say thou not, It goeth away by God; for why do thou not those things, which God hateth. [Thou shalt not say, By God it is away; those things forsooth it hateth, thou shalt not do.]
