Ecclesiasticus 20:27

Ecclesiasticus 20:27 Context

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. ²⁹Presents and gifts blind the eyes of the wise, and stoppe vp his mouth that he cannot reprooue.
