Sirach 10:26-28
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

Concerning Humility

26 Do not make a display of your wisdom when you do your work,
    and do not extol yourself when you are in difficulty.
27 Better those who work and have plenty
    than those who boast and lack bread.(A)

28 My child, honor yourself with humility,
    and give yourself the esteem you deserve.(B)
