Wisdom of Ben Sira 19:24-26

New Catholic Bible

²⁴ It is better to be short of sense and God-fearing
    than to be highly intelligent and violate the law.
²⁵ There is a cleverness that is scrupulous but dishonest,
    and there are those who abuse favors to win a favorable decision.
²⁶ There is a wicked man who bows his head in mourning
    but is filled with guile within.
