The King James Version Bible

Sirach 32:17-20

  1. A sinful man will not be reproved, but findeth an excuse according to his will.

  2. A man of counsel will be considerate; but a strange and proud man is not daunted with fear, even when of himself he hath done without counsel.

  3. Do nothing without advice; and when thou hast once done, repent not.

  4. Go not in a way wherein thou mayest fall, and stumble not among the stones.
