Wisdom 9:18

18 Only then did your ways become clear to us on earth. Only then were humans able to learn what pleases you, and were thus rescued by wisdom.

Wisdom 9:18 In-Context

16 At best, we can barely draw correct inferences concerning things we find on earth. Only after much thought and work do we come to understand what is right in front of us. Who among us then is able to examine heavenly things?

17 Who's ever known your counsel, unless you gave them wisdom and sent down your Holy Spirit from on high?

18 Only then did your ways become clear to us on earth. Only then were humans able to learn what pleases you, and were thus rescued by wisdom.
