Sirach 4:10-12

Revised Standard Version

¹⁰ Be like a father to orphans,
    and instead of a husband to their mother;
you will then be like a son of the Most High,
    and he will love you more than does your mother.

¹¹ Wisdom exalts her sons
    and gives help to those who seek her.
¹² Whoever loves her loves life,
    and those who seek her early will be filled with joy.
