Ben Sira 39:6 In-Context

4 Great people call on him for his services, and he is seen in the company of rulers. He travels to foreign lands in his efforts to learn about human good and evil.

5 It is his practice to get up early and pray aloud to the Lord his Creator, asking the Most High to forgive his sins.

6 Then, if the great Lord is willing, he will be filled with understanding. He will pour out a stream of wise sayings, and give thanks to the Lord in prayer.

7 He will have knowledge to share and good advice to give, as well as insight into the Lord's secrets.

8 He will demonstrate his learning in what he teaches, and his pride will be in the Lord's Law and covenant.
