Wisdom of Ben Sira 3:26-28

New Catholic Bible

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.
²⁸ When calamity befalls the proud, there is no cure,
    for an evil growth has taken root there.
