Sirach 1:11-13

Fear of the Lord Is True Wisdom
11 The fear of the Lord is glory and exultation,
and gladness and a crown of rejoicing.
12 The fear of the Lord delights the heart,
and gives gladness and joy and long life.[a]
13 Those who fear the Lord will have a happy end;
on the day of their death they will be blessed.
