Ben Sira 39:7-9
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
7 He will direct his knowledge and his counsel,
as he meditates upon God’s mysteries.
8 He will show the wisdom of what he has learned
and glory in the Law of the Lord’s covenant.
9 Many will praise his understanding;
his name can never be blotted out;
Unfading will be his memory,
through all generations his name will live;(A)
