Sirach 39:12-14

Common English Bible

¹² I’ll speak of other things
I’ve been thinking,
    since I was filled like the full moon.
¹³ Listen to me, faithful children,
and blossom
    like a rose growing near
    a running stream.
¹⁴ Send forth a fragrant aroma like incense,
    and bloom with blossoms like a lily.
Raise your voice, give praise together,
    and bless the Lord for all his works.
