Verse Numbers
1
I also am mortal, like everyone else, a descendant of the first-formed child of earth; and in the womb of a mother I was molded into flesh,
2
within the period of ten months, compacted with blood, from the seed of a man and the pleasure of marriage.
3
And when I was born, I began to breathe the common air, and fell upon the kindred earth; my first sound was a cry, as is true of all.
4
I was nursed with care in swaddling cloths.
5
For no king has had a different beginning of existence;
6
there is for all one entrance into life, and one way out.
7
Therefore I prayed, and understanding was given me; I called on God, and the spirit of wisdom came to me.
