Wisdom 11:24-26

Good News Translation

²⁴ You love everything that exists; you do not despise anything that you have made. If you had not liked it, you would not have made it in the first place. ²⁵ How could anything last, if you did not want it to? How could it endure, if you had not created it? ²⁶ You have allowed it all to exist, O Lord, because it is yours, and you love every living thing.
