Sirach 30:13-15
Wycliffe Bible
13 Teach thy son, and work in him; lest thou offend into the filth of him (or lest his filthy behaviour offend thee).
14 Better is a poor man whole, and strong in mights [or in strengths], than a rich man feeble, and beaten [or scourged] with malice.
15 The health of (the) soul (or of the body) is in the holiness of rightfulness, and it is better than any gold and silver; and a strong body is better than full much chattel. [Health of soul in holiness of rightwiseness, and better is than all gold and silver; and a strong body than money without measure.]
