Sirach 44:3-8

³ Such as did bear rule in their kingdoms, men renowned for their power, giving counsel by their understanding, and declaring prophecies:

⁴ Leaders of the people by their counsels, and by their knowledge of learning meet for the people, wise and eloquent are their instructions:

⁵ Such as found out musical tunes, and recited verses in writing:

⁶ Rich men furnished with ability, living peaceably in their habitations:

⁷ All these were honoured in their generations, and were the glory of their times.

⁸ There be of them, that have left a name behind them, that their praises might be reported.
