Wisdom 9:5-7
Revised Standard Version
Wisdom 9:5-7
Revised Standard Version
5 For I am thy slave and the son of thy maidservant,
a man who is weak and short-lived,
with little understanding of judgment and laws;
6 for even if one is perfect among the sons of men,
yet without the wisdom that comes from thee he will be regarded as nothing.
7 Thou hast chosen me to be king of thy people
and to be judge over thy sons and daughters.
