Original text and translations

Latin text Qui timet Deum, faciet bona, et qui continens est justitiae, apprehendet illam et obviabit illi quasi mater honorificata. (Liber Jesu filii Sirach, 15, 1-2a)

English translation He that feareth God, will do good: and he that possesseth justice, shall lay hold on her, And she will meet him as an honourable mother.

Hungarian translation Aki Istent féli, jót cselekszik, s aki kitart az igazság mellett, elnyeri azt. Az pedig eléje megy, mint tisztes anya.
