Sirach (Ecclesiasticus) 24:29-33 Good News Bible Anglicised (GNBDC)

29. The possibilities of Wisdom are vaster than the ocean; her resources are more profound than the deepest waters beneath the earth.

30. As for me, I thought of myself as an irrigation canal bringing water from a river into a garden.

31. I only intended to water my orchard and flower beds, but the canal soon became a river, and the river became a sea.

32. And so I present you with my learning; I hold it high, so that its light can be seen everywhere, like that of the rising sun.

33. Like an inspired prophet, I pour out my teachings, so that future generations can benefit from them.
