vain and false:
and dreams lift up fools.

Sir 34:2
Whoso regardeth dreams is like him that catcheth at a shadow,
and followeth after the wind.

Sir 34:3
The vision of dreams is the resemblance of one thing to
another, even as the likeness of a face to a face.

Sir 34:4
Of an unclean thing what can be cleansed? and from that thing
which is false what truth can come?

Sir 34:5
Divinations, and soothsayings, and dreams, are vain: and the
heart fancieth, as a woman's heart in travail.

Sir 34:6
If they be not sent from the most High in thy visitation, set
not thy heart upon them.

Sir 34:7
For dreams have deceived many, and they have failed that put
their trust in them.

Sir 34:8
The law shall be found perfect without lies: and wisdom is
perfection to a faithful mouth.

Sir 34:9
A man that hath travelled knoweth many things; and he that
hath much experience will declare wisdom.

Sir 34:10
He that hath no experience knoweth little: but he that hath
travelled is full of prudence.

Sir 34:16
For the eyes of the Lord are upon them that love him, he is
their mighty protection and strong stay, a defence from heat,
and a cover from the sun at noon, a preservation from stumbling,
and an help from falling.

Sir 34:17
He raiseth up the soul, and lighteneth the eyes: he giveth
health, life, and blessing.

Sir 34:18
He that sacrificeth of a thing wrongfully gotten, his
offering is ridiculous; and the gifts of unjust men are not
accepted.

Sir 34:19
The most High is not pleased with the offerings of the
wicked; neither is he pacified for sin by the multitude of
sacrifices.

Sir 34:20
Whoso bringeth an offering of the goods of the poor doeth as
one that killeth the son before his father's eyes.

Sir 34:21
The bread of the needy is their life: he that defraudeth him
thereof is a man of blood.

Sir 34:22
He that taketh away his neighbour's living slayeth him; and
he that defraudeth the labourer of his hire is a bloods
