Wisdom of Ben Sira 51:27-29

New Catholic Bible

²⁷ See for yourselves that my labors were minimal,
    but my reward of serenity has been great.
²⁸ You may expend a great deal of silver to acquire instruction,
    but, as a result, you will gain much gold.^[a]
29 May your soul rejoice in the mercy of the Lord,
    and may you never be ashamed to praise him.
