Sirach 1:11

Fear of the Lord is Wisdom

11 Fear of the Lord is a person's glory, boasting, gladness, and crown of rejoicing.

Sirach 1:11 In-Context

9 The Lord himself created her; he saw her; he measured her. The Lord poured her out over everything he made, to be with each person to the extent that God grants, and he supplied her abundantly to those who love him.

11 Fear of the Lord is a person's glory, boasting, gladness, and crown of rejoicing.

12 Fear of the Lord will cheer the heart, and it will give gladness, joy, and a long life.

13 Things will go well at the end for those who fear the Lord. They will be blessed at the time of death.
