Sirach

1 Wisdom shall praise herself, and shall glory in the midst of her people.

2 In the congregation of the most High shall she open her mouth, and triumph before his power.

3 I came out of the mouth of the most High, and covered the earth as a cloud.

9 He created me from the beginning before the world, and I shall never fail. St. Cyril of Alexandria — Commentary on John, I.1 St. John Chrysostom — Homilies on John, II.3

10 In the holy tabernacle I served before him; and so was I established in Sion.

19 Come unto me, all ye that be desirous of me, and fill yourselves with my fruits.

21 They that eat me shall yet be hungry, and they that drink me shall yet be thirsty.

23 All these things are the book of the covenant of the most High God, even the law which Moses commanded for an heritage unto the congregations of Jacob.
