Ben Sira 1:17 In-Context

15 She made among human beings an eternal foundation, and among their descendants she will abide faithfully.

16 To fear the Lord is fullness of wisdom; she inebriates mortals with her fruits;

17 she fills their whole house with desirable goods, and their storehouses with her produce.

18 The fear of the Lord is the crown of wisdom, making peace and perfect health to flourish.

19 She rained down knowledge and discerning comprehension, and she heightened the glory of those who held her fast.
