Sirach 21:11-13

Wycliffe Bible

¹¹ He that keepeth rightfulness, shall hold the wit (or the understanding) thereof. The perfection of God’s dread is wisdom and wit.

¹² He shall not be taught, which is not wise in good. Forsooth unwisdom is, which is plenteous in evil; and wit is not, where (there) is bitterness. [He shall not be learned, that is not wise in good. There is forsooth unwisdom, that aboundeth in evil; and there is not wit, where is bitterness.]

¹³ The cunning (or The knowing, or the knowledge,) of a wise man shall be plenteous [or abound] as flowing (water); and the counsel of him dwelleth as a well of life.
