In context
19My soul hath wrestled with her, And in my doings I was exact: I stretched forth my hands to the heaven above, And bewailed my ignorances of her.
20I directed my soul unto her, And I found her in pureness: I have had my heart joined with her from the beginning, Therefore shall I not be forsaken.
— Sirach 51:21 —
22The Lord hath given me a tongue for my reward, And I will praise him therewith.
23Draw near unto me, ye unlearned, And dwell in the house of learning.
