Sirach 1:24-26
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

24 They hold back their words until the right moment,
    and then the lips of many tell of their good sense.(A)

25 In the treasuries of wisdom is insightful analogy,
    but godliness is an abomination to a sinner.
26 If you desire wisdom, keep the commandments,
    and the Lord will lavish her upon you.(B)
