Sirach 24:30

30 Like a canal from a river, like an irrigation channel, I went out into a garden.

Sirach 24:30 In-Context

28 The first human didn't know Wisdom completely, and so the last won't probe her fully.
29 Her thoughts are more plentiful than the sea; her counsel is deeper than the great abyss.
30 Like a canal from a river, like an irrigation channel, I went out into a garden.
31 I said, “I'll water my garden, and I'll drench my flower bed. And look! The canal turned into a river for me, and my river turned into a sea.
32 I'll continue to make instruction shine forth like the dawn, and I'll make things clear to those who are far off.
