Ecclesiasticus 38:24 Context
22Remember my iudgement: for thine also shall be so; yesterday for me, and to day for thee. 23When the dead is at rest, let his remembrance rest, & be comforted for him, when his spirit is departed from him. 24The wisedome of a learned man cōmeth by opportunitie of leasure: & he that hath litle busines shal become wise. 25How can he get wisdome that holdeth the plough, and that glorieth in the goad; that driueth oxen, and is occupied in their labours, and whose talke is of bullocks? 26He giueth his minde to make furrowes: and is diligent to giue the kine fodder.
