Sir 37:12
But be continually with a godly man, whom thou knowest to keep
the commandments of the Lord, whose mind is according to thy
mind, and will sorrow with thee, if thou shalt miscarry.

Sir 37:13
And let the counsel of thine own heart stand: for there is no
man more faithful unto thee than it.

Sir 37:14
For a man's mind is sometime wont to tell him more than seven
watchmen, that sit above in an high tower.

Sir 37:15
And above all this pray to the most High, that he will direct
thy way in truth.

Sir 37:16
Let reason go before every enterprize, and counsel before
every action.

Sir 37:17
The countenance is a sign of changing of the heart.

Sir 37:18
Four manner of things appear: good and evil, life and death:
but the tongue ruleth over them continually.

Sir 37:19
There is one that is wise and teacheth many, and yet is
unprofitable to himself.

Sir 37:20
There is one that sheweth wisdom in words, and is hated: he
shall be destitute of all food.

Sir 37:21
For grace is not given, him from the Lord, because he is

Sir 37:23
A wise man instructeth his people; and the fruits of his
understanding fail not.

Sir 37:24
A wise man shall be filled with blessing; and all they that
see him shall count him happy.

Sir 37:25
The days of the life of man may be numbered: but the days of
Israel are innumerable.

Sir 37:26
A wise man shall inherit glory among his people, and his name
shall be perpetual.

Sir 37:27
My son, prove thy soul in thy life, and see what is evil for
it, and give not that unto it.

Sir 37:28
For all things are not profitable for all men, neither hath
every soul pleasure in every thing.

Sir 37:29
Be not unsatiable in any dainty thing, nor too greedy upon
meats:

Sir 37:30
For excess of meats bringeth sickness, and surfeiting will
turn into choler.

Sir 37:31
By surfeiting have many perished; but he that taketh heed
prolongeth his life.

Sir 38:1
Honour a physician with the honour due unto him for the uses
which ye may have of him: for the Lord hath created him.

Sir 38:2
For of the most High cometh healing, and he shall receive
honour of the king.

Sir 38:3
The skill of the physician shall lift up his head: and in the
sight of great men he shall be in admiration.

Sir 38:4
The Lord hath created medicines out of the earth; and he
