Sirach 42:1-5 World English Bible (WEB)

1. Of these things be not ashamed, And accept no man’s person to sin thereby:

2. Of the law of the Most High, and his covenant; And of judgement to do justice to the ungodly;

3. Of reckoning with a partner and with travellers; And of a gift from the heritage of friends;

4. Of exactness of balance and weights; And of getting much or little;

5. Of indifferent selling of merchants; And of much correction of children; And of making the side of an evil servant to bleed.
