14 Human reason is not adequate for the task, and our philosophies tend to mislead us,
15 because our mortal bodies weigh our souls down. The body is a temporary structure made of earth, a burden to the active mind.
16 All we can do is make guesses about things on earth; we must struggle to learn about things that are close to us. Who, then, can ever hope to understand heavenly things?
17 No one has ever learnt your will, unless you first gave him Wisdom, and sent your Holy Spirit down to him.
18 In this way people on earth have been set on the right path, have learnt what pleases you, and have been kept safe by Wisdom.”
