Whereas many great teachings have been given to us through the law and the prophets and the others that followed them, on account of which we should praise Israel for instruction and wisdom; and since it is necessary not only that the readers themselves should acquire understanding but also that those who love learning should be able to help the outsiders by both speaking and writing, my grandfather Jesus, after devoting himself especially to the reading of the law and the prophets and the other books of our fathers, and after acquiring considerable proficiency in them, was himself also led to write something pertaining to instruction and wisdom, in order that, by becoming conversant with this also, those who love learning should make even greater progress in living according to the law. (Ecclesiasticus 1, 1)
You are urged therefore to read with good will and attention, and to be indulgent in cases where, despite out diligent labor in translating, we may seem to have rendered some phrases imperfectly.

Not only this work, but even the law itself, the prophecies, and the rest of the books differ not a little as originally expressed. (Ecclesiasticus 1, 15)
All wisdom comes from the Lord and is with him for ever. (Ecclesiasticus 2, 1)

Accept whatever is brought upon you, and in changes that humble you be patient. (Ecclesiasticus 3, 4)
you who fear the Lord, hope for good things, for everlasting joy and mercy. (Ecclesiasticus 3, 9)
Consider the ancient generations and see: who ever trusted in the Lord and was put to shame? Or who ever persevered in the fear of the Lord and was forsaken? Or who ever called upon him and was overlooked? (Ecclesiasticus 3, 10)
