Ben Sira 21:16

16 The knowledge of a wise man shall abound like a flood, and his counsel continueth like a fountain of life.

Ben Sira 21:16 In-Context

14 He that is not wise in good, will not be taught.

15 But there is a wisdom that aboundeth in evil : and there is no understanding where there is bitterness.

16 The knowledge of a wise man shall abound like a flood, and his counsel continueth like a fountain of life.

17 The heart of a fool is like a broken vessel, and no wisdom at all shall it hold.

18 A man of sense will praise every wise word he shall hear, and will apply it to himself: the luxurious man hath heard it, and it shall displease him, and he will cast it behind his back.
