Sirach 51:10-14 World English Bible (WEB)

10. I called upon the Lord, the Father of my Lord, That he would not forsake me in the days of affliction, In the time when there was no help against the proud.

11. I will praise your name continually, And will sing praise with thanksgiving; And my supplication was heard:

12. For you saved me from destruction, And delivered me from the evil time: Therefore will I give thanks and praise to you, And bless the name of the Lord.

13. When I was yet young, Or ever I went abroad, I sought wisdom openly in my prayer.

14. Before the temple I asked for her, And I will seek her out even to the end.
