26 Long ago, the famous giants were born here. They were powerful and skilled warriors,
27 yet God did not choose them to be his own or tell them the way to knowledge.
28 So they all died because they were fools and lacked Wisdom.
29 No one has gone up into heaven and brought Wisdom down to earth.
30 No one has sailed across the ocean and found her or bought her with pure gold.
31 There's no one who knows how to gain Wisdom or how to find the path that leads to her.
32 God alone knows Wisdom, because he knows everything. In fact, he discovered Wisdom with his own knowledge. God created the earth to last forever, and then filled it with all kinds of animals.
