Sirach 4:9-11
Common English Bible
9 Set the wronged free
from the hand of the wrongdoer,
and don’t be timid
when you give judgment.
10 Be like a parent to orphans,
and take care of their mothers
as you would your own wife or husband.
Do this, and you will be like a child
of the Most High,
and God will love you
more than your own mother does.
Submission to Wisdom
11 Wisdom will exalt[a]
her children
and take hold of those who seek her.
