Sirach 41:15-17

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹⁵ Take care of a good name: for this shall continue with thee, more than a thousand treasures precious and great.

¹⁶ A good life hath its number of days: but a good name shall continue for ever.

¹⁷ My children, keep discipline in peace: for wisdom that is hid, and a treasure that is not seen, what profit is there in them both?
