Sirach 24:16-20

{24:16} And I took root among an honorable people, within the portion of my God, within his inheritance. And so my abode is in the full assembly of the saints.
{24:17} I was exalted like a cedar in Lebanon and like a cypress on Mount Zion.
{24:18} I was exalted like a palm tree in Kadesh and like a rose bush in Jericho.
{24:19} I was exalted like a beautiful olive tree in the plains, and like a sycamore tree beside the waters along a wide road.
{24:20} I gave off an aromatic fragrance like cinnamon or balsam. I produced a sweet odor like the best myrrh.
