Sirach 7:14-18 World English Bible (WEB)

14. Prate not in the multitude of elders; And repeat not your words in your prayer.

15. Hate not laborious work; Neither husbandry, which the Most High has ordained.

16. Number not yourself among the multitude of sinners: Remember that wrath will not wait.

17. Humble your soul greatly; For the punishment of the ungodly man is fire and the worm.

18. Change not a friend for a thing indifferent; Neither a true brother for the gold of Ophir.
