Ben Sira 10:20

20 Among brethren he that is chief is honorable; so are they that fear the Lord in His eyes.

Ben Sira 10:20 In-Context

18 Pride was not made for men, nor furious anger for them that are born of a woman.
19 They that fear the Lord are a sure seed, and they that love Him an honorable plant. They that regard not the law are a dishonorable seed; they that transgress the commandments are an unstable generation.
20 Among brethren he that is chief is honorable; so are they that fear the Lord in His eyes.
21 The fear of the Lord goeth before the obtaining of authority, but roughness and pride is the losing thereof.
22 Whether he be rich, noble, or poor, their glory is the fear of the Lord.
