Sirach 10:11-13
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition
11 For when one is dead
he inherits maggots and vermin[a] and worms.
12 The beginning of human pride is to forsake the Lord;
the heart has withdrawn from its Maker.
13 For the beginning of pride is sin,
and the one who clings to it pours out abominations.
Therefore the Lord brings upon them unheard-of calamities,
and destroys them completely.
