In context
14I was exalted like a palm tree on the sea shore, And as a rose plant in Jericho, As a fair olive tree in a plain, And grew up as a plane tree.
15I gave a sweet smell like cinnamon and aspalathus, And I yielded a pleasant odor like the best myrrh, As galbanum, and onyx, and sweet storax, And as the fume of frankincense in the tabernacle.
— Sirach 24:16 —
17As the vine brought I forth pleasant savor, And my flowers are the fruit of honor and riches.
