Sirach 6:18-20

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹⁸ My son, from thy youth up receive instruction, and even to thy grey hairs thou shalt find wisdom.

¹⁹ Come to her as one that plougheth, and soweth, and wait for her good fruits:

²⁰ For in working about her thou shalt labour a little, and shalt quickly eat of her fruits.
