Sirach 25:6-8
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised
6 Rich experience is the crown of the aged,
and their boast is the fear of the Lord.
7 I can think of nine whom I would call blessed,
and a tenth my tongue proclaims:
a man who can rejoice in his children;
a man who lives to see the downfall of his foes.
8 Happy the man who lives with a sensible wife,
and one who does not plough with ox and ass together.[a]
Happy is one who does not sin with the tongue,
and one who has not served an inferior.
