27 God didn’t select them or give themthe way of true knowledge.
28 So they perishedbecause they didn’t have Wisdom;they perishedthrough their carelessness.
29 Who went into heaven, took Wisdom,and brought her down from the clouds?
30 Who crossed over to the other side of the sea and found her,and who will bring her backwith choice gold?
31 No one knows the road she takesor thinks much aboutthe path she travels.
32 But the one who knows all thingsknows her;God found her by his understanding;the one who made the earthfor time eternal,and filled it with four-footed animals;
33 the one who sends the lightand it shines forth;who called itand it obeyed him with trembling.
