Sirach 39:11

11 If they live a long time, they will leave behind a name greater than a thousand names, and if they find rest, it will be enough for them.

Sirach 39:11 In-Context

9 Many will praise their understanding, and it will never be forgotten. The remembrance of them will never disappear, and their name will live for generations upon generations.
10 The nations will speak of their wisdom, and the congregation will proclaim their praise.
11 If they live a long time, they will leave behind a name greater than a thousand names, and if they find rest, it will be enough for them.
12 I'll speak of other things I've been thinking, since I was filled like the full moon.
13 Listen to me, faithful children, and blossom like a rose growing near a running stream.
