9 An educated person knows many things, and one with much experience knows what he is talking about.

Ben Sira 34:9 In-Context

7 For dreams have deceived many, and those who put their hope in them have perished.

8 Without such deceptions the law will be fulfilled, and wisdom is complete in the mouth of the faithful.

9 An educated person knows many things, and one with much experience knows what he is talking about.

10 An inexperienced person knows few things,

11 but he that has traveled acquires much cleverness.
