Sirach 32:18-20
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition
18 A sensible person will not overlook a thoughtful suggestion;
an insolent[a] and proud person will not be deterred by fear.[b]
19 Do nothing without deliberation,
but when you have acted, do not regret it.
20 Do not go on a path full of hazards,
and do not stumble at an obstacle twice.[c]
