Sirach 42:5DRA
Catholic Bible · DRA · Verse 5 of 26
"Of the corruption of buying, and of merchants, and of much correction of children, and to make the side of a wicked slave to bleed."
In context
3Of the affair of companions and travellers, and of the gift of the inheritance of friends:
4Of exactness of balance and weights, of getting much or little:
5Of the corruption of buying, and of merchants, and of much correction of children, and to make the side of a wicked slave to bleed.
6Sure keeping is good over a wicked wife.
7Where there are many hands, shut up, and deliver all things in number, and weight: and put all in writing that thou givest out or receivest in.
