Sirach 34:9DRA
Catholic Bible · DRA · Verse 9 of 31
"What doth he know, that hath not been tried? A man that hath much experience, shall think of many things: and he that hath learned many things, shall shew forth understanding."
In context
7For dreams have deceived many, and they have failed that put their trust in them.
8The word of the law shall be fulfilled without a lie, and wisdom shall be made plain in the mouth of the faithful.
9What doth he know, that hath not been tried? A man that hath much experience, shall think of many things: and he that hath learned many things, shall shew forth understanding.
10He that hath no experience, knoweth little: and he that hath been experienced in many things, multiplieth prudence.
11He that hath not been tried, what manner of things doth he know? he that hath been surprised, shall abound with subtlety.
