Ben Sira 1:16 In-Context

14 To fear the Lord is the first step to Wisdom. Wisdom is given to the faithful in their mothers' wombs.
15 She has lived with us from ancient times, and generations to come will rely on her.
16 To fear the Lord is Wisdom at her fullest; she satisfies us completely with her gifts
17 and fills our homes and our barns with all that our hearts can desire.
18 To fear the Lord is the flower of Wisdom that blossoms with peace and good health.
