16
We can hardly guess at what is on earth, and what is at hand we find with labor; but who has traced out what is in the heavens?
17
Who has learned thy counsel, unless thou hast given wisdom and sent thy holy Spirit from on high?
18
And thus the paths of those on earth were set right, and men were taught what pleases thee, and were saved by wisdom."
