Sirach 32:14-19 World English Bible (WEB)

14. He that fears the Lord will receive his discipline; And they that seek him early shall find favor.

15. He that seeks the law shall be filled therewith: But the hypocrite shall stumble thereat.

16. They that fear the Lord shall find judgement, And shall kindle righteous acts as a light.

17. A sinful man shunneth reproof, And will find a judgement according to his will.

18. A man of counsel will not neglect a thought; A strange and proud man will not crouch in fear, Even after he has done a thing by himself without counsel.

19. Do nothing without counsel; And when you have once done, repent not.
