Sirach 18:6-8

Revised Standard Version

⁶ It is not possible to diminish or increase them,
    nor is it possible to trace the wonders of the Lord.
⁷ When a man has finished, he is just beginning,
    and when he stops, he will be at a loss.
⁸ What is man, and of what use is he?
    What is his good and what is his evil?
