Wisdom 11:1-3
New Catholic Bible
Chapter 11
1 Through the holy prophet, Wisdom[a] gave them success in everything.
2 They journeyed through an inhospitable wilderness
and pitched their tents in untrodden wastes;
3 they stood firm against their enemies and turned back their foes.
Footnotes
- Wisdom 11:1 Wisdom: From this point on, the author mentions Wisdom only in Wis 14:2, 5. In her place, he brings before his readers God himself by means of the references he makes to God’s “Spirit” (v. 20; 12:1), his “word” (Wis 12:9; 16:12; 18:15), his “hand” (v. 17; 14:6; 16:15; 19:8), and his “arm” (v. 21; 16:16).
