Wisdom 9:15-17
New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
15 for a perishable body weighs down the soul,
and this earthy tent burdens the thoughtful[a] mind.
16 We can hardly guess at what is on earth,
and what is at hand we find with labor;
but who has traced out what is in the heavens?
17 Who has learned your counsel,
unless you have given wisdom
and sent your holy spirit from on high?
