Abstract
Let denote the set of positive integers which are prime to . Let be the -th Bernoulli number. For any prime and , we prove that \begin{equation} \sum\limits_{\begin{smallmatrix} {{l}_{1}}+{{l}_{2}}+\cdots +{{l}_{5}}={{p}^{r}} {{l}_{1}},\cdots ,{{l}_{5}}\in {\mathcal{P}_{p}} \end{smallmatrix}}{\frac{1}{{{l}_{1}}{{l}_{2}}{{l}_{3}}{{l}_{4}}{{l}_{5}}}}\equiv -\frac{5!}{6}{{B}_{p-5}}{{p}^{r-1}} \pmod{{{p}^{r}}}. \end{equation} This gives an extension of a family of super congruences found by Wang, Cai and Zhao.
