Ben Sira 10:22 In-Context

20 A leader should be honored by those who follow him, and the Lord honors those who fear him.

22 Rich people, famous people, and poor people all take pride in their fear of the Lord.

23 It is not right to refuse honor to a poor person who is intelligent, and it is not right to give honor to a sinner.

24 People of influence, rulers, and judges will be honored, but none of them is greater than a person who fears the Lord.
