Sirach 1:14-16

Wycliffe Bible

¹⁴ The beginning of wisdom is the dread of the Lord; and it is formed together in the womb with faithful men, and it goeth with chosen women, and it is known with just men and faithful. [The beginning of wisdom dread of the Lord; and with faithful men in the womb he is together formed, and with chosen women he goeth, and with rightwise and faithful men he is known.]

¹⁵ The dread of the Lord is religiosity of cunning (or of knowing, or of knowledge). Religiosity shall keep, and shall justify the heart; and shall give mirth and joy. It shall be well to him that dreadeth God; and he shall be blessed in the days of his comfort [or and in the days of (the) ending of him he shall be blessed].

¹⁶ The fullness of wisdom is for to dread God; and fullness is of the fruits thereof.
