Sirach 7:19-21

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹⁹ Humble thy spirit very much: for the vengeance on the flesh of the ungodly is fire and worms.

²⁰ Do not transgress against thy friend deferring money, nor despise thy dear brother for the sake of gold.

²¹ Depart not from a wise and good wife, whom thou hast gotten in the fear of the Lord: for the grace of her modesty is above gold.
