9The congregation of the wicked is like tow wrapped together: And the end of them is a flame of fire to destroy them.

10The way of sinners is made plain with stones, But at the end thereof is the pit of hell.

— Sirach 21:11 —

12He that is not wise will not be taught: But there is a wisdom which multiplieth bitterness.

13The knowledge of a wise man shall abound like a flood: And his counsel is like a pure fountain of life.
