Sirach 24
- 1 Wisdom shall praise herself, and shall glory in the midst of her people.
- 2 In the congregation of the most High shall she open her mouth, and triumph before his power.
- 3 I came out of the mouth of the most High, and covered the earth as a cloud.
- 4 I dwelt in high places, and my throne is in a cloudy pillar.
- 5 I alone compassed the circuit of heaven, and walked in the bottom of the deep.
- 6 In the waves of the sea and in all the earth, and in every people and nation, I got a possession.
- 7 With all these I sought rest: and in whose inheritance shall I abide?
- 8 So the Creator of all things gave me a commandment, and he that made me caused my tabernacle to rest, and said, Let thy dwelling be in Jacob, and thine inheritance in Israel.
- 9 He created me from the beginning before the world, and I shall never fail.
- 10 In the holy tabernacle I served before him; and so was I established in Sion.
- 11 Likewise in the beloved city he gave me rest, and in Jerusalem was my power.
- 12 And I took root in an honourable people, even in the portion of the Lord’s inheritance.
- 13 I was exalted like a cedar in Libanus, and as a cypress tree upon the mountains of Hermon.
- 14 I was exalted like a palm tree in En-gaddi, and as a rose plant in Jericho, as a fair olive tree in a pleasant field, and grew up as a plane tree by the water.
- 15 I gave a sweet smell like cinnamon and aspalathus, and I yielded a pleasant odour like the best myrrh, as galbanum, and onyx, and sweet storax, and as the fume of frankincense in the tabernacle.
- 16 As the turpentine tree I stretched out my branches, and my branches are the branches of honour and grace.
- 17 As the vine brought I forth pleasant savour, and my flowers are the fruit of honour and riches.
- 18 I am the mother of fair love, and fear, and knowledge, and holy hope: I therefore, being eternal, am given to all my children which are named of him.
- 19 Come unto me, all ye that be desirous of me, and fill yourselves with my fruits.
- 20 For my memorial is sweeter than honey, and mine inheritance than the honeycomb.
- 21 They that eat me shall yet be hungry, and they that drink me shall yet be thirsty.
- 22 He that obeyeth me shall never be confounded, and they that work by me shall not do amiss.
- 23 All these things are the book of the covenant of the most high God, even the law which Moses commanded for an heritage unto the congregations of Jacob.
- 24 Faint not to be strong in the Lord; that he may confirm you, cleave unto him: for the Lord Almighty is God alone, and beside him there is no other Saviour.
- 25 He filleth all things with his wisdom, as Phison and as Tigris in the time of the new fruits.
- 26 He maketh the understanding to abound like Euphrates, and as Jordan in the time of the harvest.
- 27 He maketh the doctrine of knowledge appear as the light, and as Geon in the time of vintage.
- 28 The first man knew her not perfectly: no more shall the last find her out.
- 29 For her thoughts are more than the sea, and her counsels profounder than the great deep.
- 30 I also came out as a brook from a river, and as a conduit into a garden.
- 31 I said, I will water my best garden, and will water abundantly my garden bed: and, lo, my brook became a river, and my river became a sea.
- 32 I will yet make doctrine to shine as the morning, and will send forth her light afar off.
- 33 I will yet pour out doctrine as prophecy, and leave it to all ages for ever.
- 34 Behold that I have not laboured for myself only, but for all them that seek wisdom.

King James Version (1769) with Strongs Numbers and Morphology and CatchWords, including Apocrypha (without glosses) (kjva - 3.1)
2023-07-19English (en)
This is the King James Version of the Holy Bible (also known as the Authorized Version) with embedded Strong's Numbers. The rights to the base text are held by the Crown of England.
The Strong's numbers in the OT were obtained from The Bible Foundation: http://www.bf.org. The NT Strong's data was obtained from The KJV2003 Project at CrossWire: http://www.crosswire.org. These mechanisms provide a useful means for looking up the exact original language word in a lexicon that is keyed to Strong's numbers.
Special thanks to the volunteers at Bible Foundation for keying the Hebrew/English data and of Project KJV2003 for working toward the completion of synchronizing the English phrases to the Stephanas Textus Receptus, and to Dr. Maurice Robinson for providing the base Greek text with Strong's and Morphology.
We are also appreciative of formatting markup that was provided by Michael Paul Johnson at http://www.ebible.org. Their time and generosity to contribute such for the free use of the Body of Christ is a great blessing and this derivitive work could not have been possible without these efforts of so many individuals.
Version 3.1 incorporates a more recent set of TR data from Dr. Maurice Robinson than was used in all the earlier versions. The TR data was obtained in 2016 from the Greek New Testament sources website
https://sites.google.com/a/wmail.fi/greeknt/home/greeknt
This was integrated into the OSIS source files of an intermediate version 2.9a hosted at
https://www.crosswire.org/~dmsmith/kjv2011/kjv2.9a/
It is in this spirit that we in turn offer the KJV2003 Project text freely for any purpose.
Any copyright that might be obtained for this effort is held by CrossWire Bible Society © 2003-2023 and CrossWire Bible Society hereby grants a general public license to use this text for any purpose.
