Sirach 7:4–6

4 Do not seek from the Lord high office,

or the seat of honor from the king.

5 Do not assert your righteousness before the Lord,

or display your wisdom before the king.

6 Do not seek to become a judge,

or you may be unable to root out injustice;

you may be partial to the powerful,

and so mar your integrity.
