Sirach 47:16-18

Common English Bible

¹⁶ Your name reached faraway islands,
    and you were dearly loved because of your peaceful rule.
¹⁷ Countries marveled at you
    on account of your songs, parables, proverbs, and teachings.
¹⁸ In the Lord God’s name,
    who is called God over Israel,
        you collected gold like tin,
        and you amassed silver like lead.
