Ecclesiasticus 33:26 Context

²⁴Fodder, a wand, and burdens, are for the asse: and bread, correction, and worke for a seruant. ²⁵If thou set thy seruant to labour, thou shalt finde rest: but if thou let him goe idle, he shall seeke libertie. ²⁶A yoke and a collar doe bow the necke: so are tortures and torments for an euill seruant. ²⁷Sende him to labour that hee be not idle: for idlenesse teacheth much euill. ²⁸Set him to worke, as is fit for him; if he be not obedient, put on more heauy fetters.
