Sirach 33:27-29
Wycliffe Bible
27 send thou him into working, lest he be idle; for why idleness hath taught much malice.
28 Ordain thou him in work, for so it becometh him; (so) that if he obeyeth not, bow thou down him in stocks, [In work set him, so forsooth it seemeth him; that if he hear not, bow him with gives,]
29 and make thou not him large over any man, that is, give thou not to him power over any man, but without doom, do thou nothing grievous. [and make thou not large upon all flesh, but without doom, nothing do thou heavy.]
