Sirach 24:28-30
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
28 The first man did not know wisdom[a] fully,
nor will the last one fathom her.
29 For her thoughts are more abundant than the sea
and her counsel deeper than the great abyss.
30 I came forth like a canal from a river,
like a water channel into a garden.
