Sirach 1:12–14

12 The fear of the Lord delights the heart,

and gives gladness and joy and long life.

13 With him who fears the Lord it will go well at the end;

on the day of his death he will be blessed.

14 To fear the Lord is the beginning of wisdom;

she is created with the faithful in the womb.
