Ecclesiasticus 20:28

Ecclesiasticus 20:28 Context

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. ³⁰Wisedome that is hidde, and treasure that is hoarded vp, what profit is in them both?
