Sirach 40:25-27
Wycliffe Bible
25 Gold and silver, and setting of feet; and (or but) counsel well-pleasing is above [or over] ever either.
26 Riches and virtues enhance the heart; and (or but) the dread of the Lord (is) more than this. Making less is not in the dread of the Lord; and in that dread it is not to seek help. [Faculties and virtues enhance the heart; and over these the dread of the Lord. There is not in the dread of the Lord less(en)ing; and there is not in it to seek help.]
27 The dread of the Lord is as (a) paradise of blessing; and the blessings of God covered him above all glory.
