Sir 24:31
King James Version
“I said, I will water my best garden, and will water abundantly my garden bed: and, lo, my brook became a river, and my river became a sea.”
Context
28The first man knew her not perfectly: no more shall the last find her out.

30I also came out as a brook from a river, and as a conduit into a garden.
31I said, I will water my best garden, and will water abundantly my garden bed: and, lo, my brook became a river, and my river became a sea.
32I will yet make doctrine to shine as the morning, and will send forth her light afar off.
33I will yet pour out doctrine as prophecy, and leave it to all ages for ever.
34Behold that I have not laboured for myself only, but for all them that seek wisdom.
