Wisdom of Ben Sira 10:24-26
New Catholic Bible
24 The prince, the judge, and the ruler are held in honor,
but none is as great as the one who fears the Lord.
25 When those who are free serve a wise servant,
an intelligent man will not complain.
Value Yourself at Your True Worth[a]
26 Do not flaunt your wisdom in doing your work,
and do not put on airs when you are in need.
