Sirach 40:25-27

Good News Translation

²⁵ Gold and silver provide security, but good advice is better.

²⁶ Wealth and strength give confidence, but the fear of the Lord can give you even greater confidence. When you fear the Lord you need nothing more; it is all the support you need. ²⁷ The fear of the Lord is like a rich garden of blessings; you could not want a more glorious shelter.
