Ben Sira 1:2

2 Who can number the sand of the sea, and the drops of rain, and the days of eternity?

Ben Sira 1:2 In-Context

1 All wisdom cometh from the Lord, and is with Him for ever.

2 Who can number the sand of the sea, and the drops of rain, and the days of eternity?

3 Who can find out the height of heaven, and the breadth of the earth, and the deep, and wisdom?

4 Wisdom hath been created before all things, and the understanding of prudence from everlasting.

5 The word of God Most High is the fountain of wisdom; and her ways are everlasting commandments.
