Sirach 51:28-30

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

²⁸ Get instruction with a large sum of silver,
    and you will gain by it much gold.
²⁹ May your soul rejoice in his mercy,
    and may you not be put to shame when you praise him.
³⁰ Do your work before the appointed time,
    and in God’s^[a] time he will give you your reward.
