Wisdom 14:4-6

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

⁴ showing that you can save from every danger,
so that even a person who lacks skill may put to sea.
⁵ It is your will that works of your wisdom should not be without effect;
therefore people trust their lives even to the smallest piece of wood,
and passing through the billows on a raft they come safely to land.
⁶ For even in the beginning, when arrogant giants were perishing,
the hope of the world took refuge on a raft,
and guided by your hand left to the world the seed of a new generation.
