Ecclesiasticus 1:16

Ecclesiasticus 1:16 Context

¹³Whoso feareth the Lord, it shall go well with him at the last, and he shall find favour in the day of his death. ¹⁴To fear the Lord is the beginning of wisdom: and it was created with the faithful in the womb. ¹⁵She hath built an everlasting foundation with men, and she shall continue with their seed. ¹⁶To fear the Lord is fulness of wisdom, and filleth men with her fruits. ¹⁷She filleth all their house with things desirable, and the garners with her increase. ¹⁸The fear of the Lord is a crown of wisdom, making peace and perfect health to flourish; both which are the gifts of God: and it enlargeth their rejoicing that love him. ¹⁹Wisdom raineth down skill and knowledge of understanding standing, and exalteth them to honour that hold her fast.
