Ecclesiasticus 20:26

Ecclesiasticus 20:26 Context

²⁴A lie is a foule blot in a man, yet it is continually in the mouth of the vntaught. ²⁵A thiefe is better then a man that is accustomed to lie: but they both shall haue destruction to heritage. ²⁶The disposition of a liar is dishonourable, and his shame is euer with him. ²⁷A wise man shall promote himselfe to honour with his words: and hee that hath vnderstanding, will please great men. ²⁸He that tilleth his land, shall increase his heape: and he that pleaseth great men, shal get pardon for iniquity.
