Wisdom of Ben Sira 1:26-28
New Catholic Bible
26 If you desire wisdom, keep the commandments,
and the Lord will lavish her upon you.[a]
27 For the fear of the Lord is wisdom and discipline,
fidelity and humility are his delight.
28 Do not disregard the fear of the Lord,
or approach him with a divided heart.
