Sirach 41:13-15

Wycliffe Bible

¹³ The number of days is the term of (a) good life; but a good name shall dwell without end. [Of (a) good life (is) the number of days; forsooth (a) good name shall abide still into the spiritual world.]

¹⁴ Sons, keep ye teaching in peace; for why wisdom hid, and treasure unseen, what profit is in ever either? [Discipline in peace keepeth, ye sons; hid forsooth wisdom, and treasure unseen, what profit in ever either?]

¹⁵ Better is a man that hideth his folly, than a man that hideth his wisdom.
