Sirach 9:13-15
Common English Bible
13 Keep far away from people
who have the authority to kill,
and you won’t be worried
by the fear of death.
If you do approach them,
don’t make a mistake,
or they might take away your life.
Be aware that you are stepping
among traps
and that you are walking
on the parapet of the city’s walls.
14 As much as you can,
investigate your neighbor
and consult with wise people.
15 Converse with intelligent people,
and talk constantly about the Law
of the Most High.
