Sirach 1:23-25
Wycliffe Bible
23 A patient man shall suffer the dis-eases of a proud man till into (a) time; and afterward there shall be yielding of mirth. [Unto (a) time the patient shall suffer; and afterward is yielding again of full mirth.]
24 Good wit shall hide the words of him till into a time; and the lips of many men shall tell out the wit of him.
25 In the treasures of wisdom is signifying of cunning (or of knowing); but the worshipping of God is abomination to a sinner. [In the treasures of wisdom is tokening of discipline; cursing forsooth to the sinner is the praising of God.]
