Sirach 47:16-20

{47:16} And you were filled with wisdom like a river, and your mind exposed the world.
{47:17} And you explained mysteries by means of parables. Your name became known to far off islands, and you were beloved for your peace.
{47:18} The earth was in wonder over your canticles, and proverbs, and parables, and interpretations,
{47:19} and over the name of the Lord God, who is known as the God of Israel.
{47:20} You gathered gold like copper, and you multiplied silver like lead.
