Ben Sira 17:6-16

6 Counsel, and a tongue, and eyes, ears, and a heart, gave He them to understand.
7 Besides He filled them with the knowledge of understanding, and showed them good and evil.
8 He set His eye upon their hearts, that He might show them the greatness of His works.
9 He gave them to glory in His marvelous acts for ever, that they might declare His works with understanding.
10 And the elect shall praise His holy name.
11 Besides this He gave them knowledge, and the law of life for a heritage.
12 He made an everlasting covenant with them, and showed them His judgments.
13 Their eyes saw the majesty of His glory, and their ears heard His glorious voice.
14 And He said unto them, "Beware of all unrighteousness"; and He gave every man commandment concerning his neighbor.
15 Their ways are ever before Him, and shall not be hid from His eyes.
16 Every man from his youth is given to evil, neither could they make for themselves fleshy hearts from stony.
