Ben Sira 1:11

11 The fear of the Lord is glory and exultation, and gladness and a crown of rejoicing.

Ben Sira 1:11 In-Context

9 It is he who created her; he saw her and took her measure; he poured her out upon all his works,
10 upon all the living according to his gift; he lavished her upon those who love him.
11 The fear of the Lord is glory and exultation, and gladness and a crown of rejoicing.
12 The fear of the Lord delights the heart, and gives gladness and joy and long life.
13 Those who fear the Lord will have a happy end; on the day of their death they will be blessed.
