Sirach 40:19 CPDV

¹⁷  Grace is like a paradise of blessings, and mercy continues for eternity.

¹⁸  The life of a worker, when content with what is sufficient, will become sweet, and in it you will find a treasure.

¹⁹  Sons, and the building of a city, will establish a name, but an immaculate wife will be ranked above these things.

²⁰  Wine and music rejoice the heart, but the love of wisdom is above them both.

²¹  The flute and the psaltery make a sweet melody, but a pleasant word is above them both.
