“I can think of nine
Whom I should call blessed.
My tongue proclaims a tenth.
A blessed man can rejoice
In his children.
A blessed man lives
To see the downfall of his foes.
Happy the man
Who lives With a sensible wife.
Happy is the one
Who does not plow
With an ox and donkey together.
Happy is the one
Who does not sin with his tongue.
Happy is the one
Who has not served an inferior.
Happy is the one
Who finds a friend.
Happy is the one
Who speaks to attentive listeners.
How great is the one
Who finds wisdom!
But none is superior to the one
Who fears the Lord.
Fear of the Lord
Surpasses everything.
To whom can we compare
To the one who has it?
The fear of the Lord
Is the beginning of love
For him.
Faith is the beginning
Of clinging to him.”
Once again, Sirach has a numerical proverb. There are 9 kinds of blessed people and a 10th that is even better. He would consider you a blessed happy person if you rejoiced in your children (1). You would be blessed happy if you see your foes fail (2). You are blessed happy, if you live with a sensible wife (3). You are blessed happy, if you plow your field without mixing up your ox and your donkey (4). You should be blessed happy, if you never sin with your tongue (5). You should be blessed happy, if you never have to serve an inferior (6). You are blessed happy, if you have found a friend (7) and people willing to listen to you (8). However, you the great ones are blessed happy when you find wisdom (9). You are the people who fear the Lord (10), since that surpasses everything. Nothing can compare to you, the ones who have the fear of the Lord that is the beginning of love for the Lord. It is the beginning of faith in the Lord.
