Wisdom 9:16-18

Wycliffe Bible

¹⁶ And of hard we guess those things, that be in (or on) (the) earth; and we find with travail those things, that be in beholding. But who shall search those things, that be in (the) heavens? [or That forsooth in heavens be, who shall ensearch?]

¹⁷ But who shall know thy wit, no but thou give wisdom/but if thou give wisdom, and send thine Holy Spirit from (the) highest things?

¹⁸ And if the paths of them, that be in lands, be amended, and if men have learned those things, that please thee. For why, Lord, whichever pleased thee from the beginning, were made whole by wisdom.
