In context
16A faithful friend is the medicine of life; And they that fear the Lord shall find him.
17Whoso feareth the Lord shall direct his friendship aright: For as he is, so shall his neighbor be also.
— Sirach 6:18 —
19Come unto her as one that ploweth and soweth, And wait for her good fruits: For thou shalt not toil much in laboring about her, But thou shalt eat of her fruits right soon.
20She is very unpleasant to the unlearned: He that is without understanding will not remain with her.
