Sirach 22:14-16
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised
14 What is heavier than lead?
And what is its name except ‘Fool’?
15 Sand, salt, and a piece of iron
are easier to bear than a stupid person.
16 A wooden beam firmly bonded into a building
is not loosened by an earthquake;
so the mind firmly resolved after due reflection
will not be afraid in a crisis.
