Ben Sira 21:13

13 The knowledge of the wise will increase like a flood, and their counsel like a life-giving spring.

Ben Sira 21:13 In-Context

11 Whoever keeps the law controls his thoughts, and the fulfillment of the fear of the Lord is wisdom.

12 The one who is not clever cannot be taught, but there is a cleverness that increases bitterness.

13 The knowledge of the wise will increase like a flood, and their counsel like a life-giving spring.

14 The mind of a fool is like a broken jar; it can hold no knowledge.

15 When an intelligent person hears a wise saying, he praises it and adds to it; when a fool hears it, he laughs at it and throws it behind his back.
