Sirach 21:9-11

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

⁹ An assembly of the lawless is like a bundle of tinder,
    and their end is a blazing fire.^(A)
10 The way of sinners is paved with smooth stones,
    but at its end is the pit of Hades.^(B)

¹¹ Those who keep the law control their thoughts,
    and the fulfillment of the fear of the Lord is wisdom.^(C)
