Ben Sira 51:21-25 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

21. My whole being was stirred to seek her;therefore I have made her my prize possession.

22. The Lord has rewarded me with lips,with a tongue for praising him.

23. Come aside to me, you untutored,and take up lodging in the house of instruction;

24. How long will you deprive yourself of wisdom’s food,how long endure such bitter thirst?

25. I open my mouth and speak of her:gain wisdom for yourselves at no cost.
