Sirach 21:13-15
Common English Bible
13 The knowledge of the wise
will increase like a flood,
and their counsel is like
a stream of life.
14 The mind[a] of a fool is like a broken jar:
it can’t hold knowledge.
15 If those who understand
hear a wise word;
they will praise it and add to it.
Those who like to indulge themselves
hear it and are displeased,
and they turn their back on it.
