Sirach 20:30 He that tilleth his land shall make a high heap of corn: and he that worketh justice shall be exalted: and he that pleaseth great men shall escape iniquity.

And....exalted, is not in Greek but explains the meaning of the former sentence. --- Escape. Greek, "obtain pardon for iniquity." (Haydock) --- The great will protect him.
