Wisdom 16:26-28

Wycliffe Bible

²⁶ (so) that, Lord, thy sons should know, which thou lovedest, that not the fruits of birth, that is, not only (the) fruits coming forth of (or from) (the) earth, feed men, but thy word keepeth them, that believe in thee. [that thy sons, whom thou lovedest, Lord, should know, for not the fruit of birth fed men, but thy word kept them, that in the believed.]

²⁷ For why that that might not be destroyed of (or by) (the) fire, that is, manna, melted anon (or at once) as it was made hot of (or by) a little beam of the sun; [That forsooth that of fire might not be destroyed, anon of a little beam of sun chaffed, flowed;]

²⁸ (so) that it were known to all men, that it behooveth to come before the sun to thy blessing, and to worship thee at the rising of the light. [that it were known to all, for it behooveth to come before the sun to thy blessing, and at the springing of light to honour thee.]
