Sirach 1:26-28
Wycliffe Bible
26 A! (O!) son, coveting wisdom, keep thou rightfulness [or keep rightwiseness], and God shall give it to thee.
27 For why the dread of the Lord is wisdom, and cunning, (or knowing), and that that is well pleasant (or well-pleasing) to him is faith and mildness (or meekness); and God shall fill the treasures of him. [Wisdom forsooth and discipline the dread of the Lord, and that well-pleased is to him, faith and debonairness; and it shall full-fill the treasures of him.]
28 Be thou not rebel(lious), and unbelieveful to the dread of the Lord; and nigh (or approach) thou not to him in (a) double heart. [Be thou not rebel, and mis-believeful to the dread of the Lord; and not nigh thou to him with double heart.]
