Sirach 47:14-16
New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
14 How wise you were when you were young!
You overflowed like the Nile[a] with understanding.
15 Your influence spread throughout the earth,
and you filled it with proverbs having deep meaning.
16 Your fame reached to far-off islands,
and you were loved for your peaceful reign.
