Sirach 2:12-14

Revised Standard Version

¹² Woe to timid hearts and to slack hands,
    and to the sinner who walks along two ways!
¹³ Woe to the faint heart, for it has no trust!
    Therefore it will not be sheltered.
¹⁴ Woe to you who have lost your endurance!
    What will you do when the Lord punishes you?
