Sirach 24:28-30

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition

²⁸The first man did not know wisdom^[a] fully,

²⁹For her thoughts are more abundant than the sea,
and her counsel deeper than the great abyss.

³⁰As for me, I was like a canal from a river,
like a water channel into a garden.
