Sirach 10:13-15
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
13 For the beginning of pride is sin,
and the one who clings to it pours out abominations.
Therefore the Lord brought upon them unheard-of calamities
and destroyed them completely.[a]
14 The Lord overthrew the thrones of rulers
and enthroned the lowly in their place.(A)
15 The Lord plucked up the roots of the nations[b]
and planted the humble in their place.
