Sirach 32:16-18
Revised Standard Version
16 Those who fear the Lord will form true judgments,
and like a light they will kindle righteous deeds.
17 A sinful man will shun reproof,
and will find a decision according to his liking.
18 A man of judgment will not overlook an idea,
and an insolent[a] and proud man will not cower in fear.[b]
