Ben Sira 10:30

30 The poor man is honored for his skill, and the rich man is honored for his riches.

Ben Sira 10:30 In-Context

28 My son, glorify thy soul in meekness, and give it honor according to the dignity thereof.
29 Who will justify him that sinneth against his own soul? And who will honor him that dishonoreth his own life?
30 The poor man is honored for his skill, and the rich man is honored for his riches.
31 He that is honored in poverty, how much more in riches? And he that is dishonorable in riches, how much more in poverty?
