Ben Sira 1:27

Listen to Ben Sira 1:27
27 For the fear of the Lord is wisdom and instruction, and he delights in fidelity and meekness.

Ben Sira 1:27 In-Context

25 In the treasuries of wisdom are wise sayings, but godliness is an abomination to a sinner.
26 If you desire wisdom, keep the commandments, and the Lord will supply it for you.
27 For the fear of the Lord is wisdom and instruction, and he delights in fidelity and meekness.
28 Do not disobey the fear of the Lord; do not approach him with a divided mind.
29 Be not a hypocrite in men's sight, and keep watch over your lips.
