Ben Sira 3:21

21 Neither seek what is too difficult for you, nor investigate what is beyond your power.

Ben Sira 3:21 In-Context

20 For great is the might of the Lord; but by the humble he is glorified.
21 Neither seek what is too difficult for you, nor investigate what is beyond your power.
22 Reflect upon what you have been commanded, for what is hidden is not your concern.
23 Do not meddle in matters that are beyond you, for more than you can understand has been shown you.
