Wisdom 1:6-8
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
6 For wisdom is a kindly spirit,
yet she does not acquit blasphemous lips;
Because God is the witness of the inmost self(A)
and the sure observer of the heart
and the listener to the tongue.(B)
7 For the spirit of the Lord fills the world,(C)
is all-embracing, and knows whatever is said.
8 Therefore those who utter wicked things will not go unnoticed,
nor will chastising condemnation pass them by.(D)
