Sirach 1:14-16

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹⁴ The love of God is honourable wisdom.

¹⁵ And they to whom she shall shew herself love her by the sight, and by the knowledge of her great works.

¹⁶ The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, and was created with the faithful in the womb, it walketh with chosen women, and is known with the just and faithful.
