Ecclesiasticus 7:21

Ecclesiasticus 7:21 Context

¹⁸Change not a friend for any good by no means; neither a faithful brother for the gold of Ophir. ¹⁹Forego not a wise and good woman: for her grace is above gold. ²⁰Whereas thy servant worketh truly, entreat him not evil, nor the hireling that bestoweth himself wholly for thee. ²¹Let thy soul love a good servant, and defraud him not of liberty. ²²Hast thou cattle? have an eye to them: and if they be for thy profit, keep them with thee. ²³Hast thou children? instruct them, and bow down their neck from their youth. ²⁴Hast thou daughters? have a care of their body, and shew not thyself cheerful toward them.
