Sirach 33:25-27

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

^25 [a]Fodder and a stick and burdens for a donkey;
    bread and discipline and work for a slave.^(A)
26 Set your slaves to work,^[b] and you will find rest;
    leave their hands idle, and they will seek liberty.
²⁷ Yoke and strap will bow the neck,
    and for wicked slaves there are racks and tortures.^(B)
