Ecclesiasticus 25:12 Context
10Oh how great is he that findeth wisedome! yet is there none aboue him that feareth the Lord. 11But the loue of the Lord passeth all things for illumination: he that holdeth it, whereto shall he be likened? 12The feare of the Lord is the beginning of his loue: and faith is the beginning of cleauing vnto him. 13[Giue mee] any plague, but the plague of the heart: and any wickednesse, but the wickednesse of a woman. 14And any affliction, but the affliction from them that hate me: and any reuenge, but the reuenge of enemies.
