Sirach 27:1-3
Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
27 Many have committed sin for a trifle,[a]
and whoever seeks to get rich will avert his eyes.
2 As a stake is driven firmly into a fissure between stones,
so sin is wedged in between selling and buying.
3 If a man is not steadfast and zealous in the fear of the Lord,
his house will be quickly overthrown.
