Wisdom of Ben Sira 4:15-17
New Catholic Bible
15 Whoever obeys her will judge nations;
whoever listens to her will dwell securely.
16 Whoever entrusts himself to her will possess her,
and his descendants will also inherit her.
17 At first she will lead him along tortuous paths,
putting him to the test,
filling him with fear and dread
and trying him with her discipline
until he comes to fully trust her.
