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.
11 The fear of the Lord is glory and exultation,gladness and a festive crown.
