Sirach 15:7
Print
People who lack sense will never receive her, and sinners will never see her.
But foolish men shall not obtain her, and wise men shall meet her, foolish men shall not see her: for she is far from pride and deceit.
But people who are foolish or sinful will never even catch sight of Wisdom.
The worthless will not attain her, and the haughty will not behold her.
The foolish will never obtain her, nor will sinners behold her.
The foolish will not obtain her, and sinners will not see her.
The foolish will not obtain her, and sinners will not see her.
The foolish will not obtain her, and sinners will not see her.
The foolish will not obtain her, and sinners will not see her.
Foolish men will not obtain her, and sinful men will not see her.
Foolish men will not obtain her, and sinful men will not see her.
Fond (or Foolish) men shall not take that wisdom, and (or but) witty men shall meet it. (Yea,) Fond men shall not see it; [Men fools shall not take it, and (or but) men well feeling shall meet to (or with) it. Men fools shall not see it,]
