Sirach 14:20, 15:3-6
The desire to learn is a gift from GodHappy those who meditate on Wisdom, and fix their gaze on knowledge; She will feed him with the bread of learning, and give him the water of understanding to drink. He will lean upon her and not fall; he will trust in her and not be put to shame. She will exalt him above his neighbors, and in the assembly she will make him eloquent. Joy and gladness he will find, and an everlasting name he will inherit.
