Sirach 39:9-11
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
9 Many will praise their understanding;
it will never be blotted out.
Their memory will not disappear,
and their names will live through all generations.(A)
10 Nations will speak of their wisdom,
and the congregation will proclaim their praise.(B)
11 If they live long, they will leave a name greater than a thousand,
and if they go to rest, it is enough for them.
