In context
21Forget him not, for there is no turning again: Thou shalt not do him good, but hurt thyself.
22Remember his judgment: for thine also shall be so; Yesterday for me, and today for thee.
— Sirach 38:23 —
24The wisdom of a learned man cometh by opportunity of leisure: And he that hath little business shall become wise.
25How can he get wisdom that holdeth the plow, And that glorieth in the goad, That driveth oxen, and is occupied in their labors, And whose talk is of bullocks?
