2 The sands of the sea, the drops of rain,the days of eternity—who can count them?
3 Heaven’s height, earth’s extent,the abyss and wisdom—who can explore them?
4 Before all other things wisdom was created;and prudent understanding, from eternity.
6 The root of wisdom—to whom has it been revealed?Her subtleties—who knows them?
8 There is but one, wise and truly awesome,seated upon his throne—the Lord.
9 It is he who created her,saw her and measured her,Poured her forth upon all his works,
10 upon every living thing according to his bounty,lavished her upon those who love him.
