Sirach 22:15-17
Common English Bible
15 Sand, salt, and a lump of iron
are easier to bear
than an unintelligent person.
16 A wooden beam fastened into a building
won’t be loosened by an earthquake.
So a heart firmly set
on thoughtful counsel
won’t be afraid at any time.
17 A heart fixed on thoughtful understanding
is like an engraved ornament
on a smooth wall.
