Sirach 22:14-16

Wycliffe Bible

¹⁴ What shall be made heavier than lead? and what other name than a fool is to it? [Over (or More than) lead what shall be heavy? and what other name to him than a fool?]

¹⁵ It is lighter (or easier) to bear gravel, and salt, and a gobbet of iron, than a man unprudent, and a fool, and unfaithful. [Lighter (it) is to bear gravel, and salt, and a gobbet of iron, than an imprudent man, and a fool, and unpious.]

¹⁶ As an heap of trees, bound together in the foundament of the building, shall not be unbound, so and an heart confirmed in the thought of counsel. [As joining of trees, bound together to the foundament of the building, shall not be unloosed, so and the heart fastened together in the thinking of counsel.]
