Sirach 21:16LXX
Orthodox Bible · LXX · Verse 16 of 31
"The knowledge of a wise man shall abound like a flood, and his counsel continueth like a fountain of life."
In context
14He that is not wise in good, will not be taught.
15But there is a wisdom that aboundeth in evil: and there is no understanding where there is bitterness.
16The knowledge of a wise man shall abound like a flood, and his counsel continueth like a fountain of life.
17The heart of a fool is like a broken vessel, and no wisdom at all shall it hold.
18A 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.
