Wisdom of Ben Sira 3:25-27

New Catholic Bible

²⁵ Where there are no eyes, there is no light,
    and where there is no knowledge, there is no wisdom.
²⁶ A stubborn person will come to a bad end,
    and the one who loves danger will perish in it.
²⁷ A stubborn man will be burdened by troubles;
    a sinner heaps sin upon sin.
