Sirach 16:22-24
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised
22 Who is to announce his acts of justice?
Or who can await them? For his decree[a] is far off.’[b]
23 Such are the thoughts of one devoid of understanding;
a senseless and misguided person thinks foolishly.
God’s Wisdom Seen in Creation
24 Listen to me, my child, and acquire knowledge,
and pay close attention to my words.
