Sirach 51:18LXX

16And thou hast saved me from destruction, and hast delivered me from the evil time.

17Therefore I will give thanks, and praise thee, and bless the name of the Lord.

18When I was yet young, before I wandered about, I sought for wisdom openly in my prayer.

19I prayed for her before the temple, and unto the very end I will seek after her, and she flourished as a grape soon ripe.

20My heart delighted in her, my foot walked in the right way, from my youth up I sought after her.
