Sirach 20:12-14

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹² There is that buyeth much for a small price, and restoreth the same sevenfold.

¹³ A man wise in words shall make himself beloved: but the graces of fools shall be poured out.

¹⁴ The gift of the fool shall do thee no good: for his eyes are sevenfold.
