Blessings of Wisdom (On seeking knowledge and discipline)
Be ready to listen to every Godly discourse
And let no wise proverbs escape you
If you see an intelligent person
Rise early to visit him. Let your foot wear out his doorstep
Reflect on the statutes of the Lord
and medidate at all times on his commandments.
It is he who will give insight to your mind
and your desire for wisdom will be granted.
Sirach 6:35:34
