Sirach 21:4-6
New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
4 Panic and insolence will waste away riches;
thus the house of the proud will be laid waste.[a]
5 The prayer of the poor goes from their lips to the ears of God,[b]
and his judgment comes speedily.
6 Those who hate reproof walk in the sinner’s steps,
but those who fear the Lord repent in their heart.
