Sirach 16:25-27

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

²⁵ And I will shew forth good doctrine in equity, and will seek to declare wisdom: and attend to my words in thy heart, whilst with equity of spirit I tell thee the virtues that God hath put upon his works from the beginning, and I shew forth in truth his knowledge.

²⁶ The works of God are done in judgment from the beginning, and from the making of them he distinguished their parts, and their beginnings in their generations.

²⁷ He beautified their works for ever, they have neither hungered, nor laboured, and they have not ceased from their works.
