Sirach 51:11 In-Context

9 I sent up my prayer from the earth, and I begged to be rescued from death.

10 I called out to the Lord, the father of my master: "Don't desert me in the time of my distress, when I am helpless before the arrogant.

11 I will praise your name continually, and I will sing thanksgiving hymns." My prayer was heard,

12 because you saved me from destruction and you rescued me from an evil time. For this, I will give thanks, praise you, and bless the Lord's name.

13 When I was still young, before I had traveled, I sought Wisdom openly in my prayer.
