Sirach 33:2

2 Wise people won't hate the Law, but those who are hypocrites about it are like a boat in a storm.

Sirach 33:2 In-Context

1 Those who fear the Lord won't encounter evil, but when they are tested they will be delivered again and again.

2 Wise people won't hate the Law, but those who are hypocrites about it are like a boat in a storm.

3 Sensible people will trust the Lord's word; for them, the Law is as trustworthy as divine oracles.

4 Prepare your speech, and then you will be heard; draw upon your training, and give an answer.

5 The emotions of the foolish are like a wagon wheel, and their arguments are like a turning axle.
