Wisdom of Ben Sira 32:18-20
New Catholic Bible
18 A man who is sensible will never ignore reasonable counsel,
whereas an arrogant and godless man will not be deterred by anything.
19 Never do anything without careful deliberation,
but once you have acted, do not regret your decision.
20 Do not choose to travel on a way beset with hazards,
and do not stumble on stony ground.[a]
