Sirach 32:16-18
New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
16 Those who fear the Lord will form true judgments,
and they will kindle righteous deeds like a light.
17 The sinner will shun reproof,
and will find a decision according to his liking.
18 A sensible person will not overlook a thoughtful suggestion;
an insolent[a] and proud person will not be deterred by fear.[b]
