Ben Sira 32:5

5 A concert of music in a banquet of wine is as a signet of ruby set in gold.

Ben Sira 32:5 In-Context

3 Speak, thou that art the elder, for it becometh thee, but with sound judgment; and hinder not music.
4 Pour not out words where there is a musician, and show not forth wisdom out of time.
5 A concert of music in a banquet of wine is as a signet of ruby set in gold.
6 As a signet of an emerald set in a work of gold, so is the melody of music with pleasant wine.
7 Speak, young man, if there be need of thee, and yet scarcely when thou art twice asked.
