In context
26Be not overwise in doing thy business; And boast not thyself in the time of thy distress.
27Better is he that laboreth, and aboundeth in all things, Than he that boasteth himself, and wanteth bread.
— Sirach 10:28 —
29Who will justify him that sinneth against his own soul? And who will honor him that dishonoreth his own life?
30The poor man is honored for his skill, And the rich man is honored for his riches.
