Sirach 20:29-31

Wycliffe Bible

²⁹ Presents and gifts blind the eyes of judges; and as (one) dumb in the mouth it turneth away the chastisings of them. [Presents and gifts full out blind the eyes of doomsmen; and as a dumb in the mouth he turneth away the chastisings of them.]

³⁰ Wisdom hid, and treasure unseen, what profit is in ever either?

³¹ He is better, that hideth his unwisdom, than a man that hideth his wisdom. [Better is, that covereth his unwisdom, than a man that hideth his wisdom.]
