6 If the great Lord is willing,they will be filledwith a spirit of understanding;they will pour forth words of wisdom,and they will give thanksto the Lord in prayer.
7 Their reasoning and knowledgewill remain on course,and they will ponder God’s mysteries.
8 They will bring to lightthe learning of their instruction,and they will make the lawsof the Lord’s covenant their boast.
9 Many will praise their understanding,and it will never be forgotten.The remembrance of themwill never disappear,and their name will livefor generations upon generations.
10 The nations will speak of their wisdom,and the congregationwill proclaim their praise.
11 If they live a long time,they will leave behind a namegreater than a thousand names,and if they find rest,it will be enough for them.
12 I’ll speak of other thingsI’ve been thinking,since I was filled like the full moon.
