Ben Sira 39:12

12 I have more on my mind to express; I am full like the full moon.

Ben Sira 39:12 In-Context

10 Nations will speak of his wisdom, and the congregation will proclaim his praise.

11 If he lives long, he will leave a name greater than a thousand, and if he goes to rest, it is enough for him.

12 I have more on my mind to express; I am full like the full moon.

13 Listen to me, my faithful children, and blossom like a rose growing by a stream of water.

14 Send out fragrance like incense, and put forth blossoms like a lily. Scatter the fragrance, and sing a hymn of praise; bless the Lord for all his works.
