Sirach 47:16-18

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

¹⁶ Your fame reached to far-off islands,
    and you were loved for your peaceful reign.
¹⁷ Your songs, proverbs, and parables,
    and the answers you gave astounded the nations.
¹⁸ In the name of the Lord God,
    who is called the God of Israel,
you gathered gold like tin
    and amassed silver like lead.
