Sirach 27:1-3
New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
27 Many have committed sin for gain,[a]
and those who seek to get rich will avert their eyes.
2 As a stake is driven firmly into a fissure between stones,
so sin is wedged in between selling and buying.
3 If a person is not steadfast in the fear of the Lord,
his house will be quickly overthrown.
