Sirach 39:17 CPDV

¹⁵  While he remains, he leaves behind a name greater than a thousand, and when he will rest, it will be to his benefit.

¹⁶  I will meditate further, so that I may explain. For I have been filled with a passion.

¹⁷  In a voice, he says: Listen to me, divine fruits. You shall bear fruit, like roses planted beside streams of waters.

¹⁸  You shall have a sweet fragrance, like the cedars of Lebanon.

¹⁹  Blossom with flowers, like the lily, and diffuse a fragrance, and sprout leaves in grace, and give praise with canticles, and bless the Lord in his works.
