Ecclesiasticus 38:25 Context
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. 27So euery carpenter, and workemaster, that laboureth night and day: and they that cut and graue seales, and are diligent to make great variety, and giue themselues to counterfait imagerie, and watch to finish a worke.
