Sirach 51:23-26
New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
23 Draw near to me, you who are uneducated,
and lodge in the house of instruction.
24 Why do you say you are lacking in these things,[a]
and why do you endure such great thirst?
25 I opened my mouth and said,
Acquire wisdom[b] for yourselves without money.
26 Put your neck under her[c] yoke,
and let your souls receive instruction;
it is to be found close by.
