Sirach 47:14-17 World English Bible (WEB)

14. How wise was you made in your youth, And filled as a river with understanding!

15. Your soul covered the earth, And you filled it with dark parables.

17. For your songs and proverbs and parables, And for your interpretations, the countries marveled at you.
