Sirach 21:2-4
Common English Bible
2 Run away from sin
like you would from a snake:
If you go near it, it will bite you.
Its teeth are lion’s teeth,
destroying a person’s life.
3 All lawlessness is a two-edged sword,
and there’s no healing for its wound.
4 Alarm and insolence will strip away wealth;
thus will an arrogant person’s house
be uprooted.
