Sirach 50:26-28

26 those who settled on Samaria’s hills,[a]
the Philistines,
and the foolish people
who dwell in Shechem.
27 Instruction in understanding
and knowledge
were inscribed in this scroll
by Jesus, Sirach’s son and grandson
of Eleazar the Jerusalemite.[b]
He poured forth wisdom from his heart.
28 Favored are those who devote their time
to these things;
when they take them to heart,
they will be wise.
