Ben Sira 3:21

21 Seek not out the things that are too hard for thee, neither search the things that are above thy strength.

Ben Sira 3:21 In-Context

19 Many are in high place and of renown, but mysteries are revealed unto the meek.
20 For the power of the Lord is great, and He is honored by the lowly.
21 Seek not out the things that are too hard for thee, neither search the things that are above thy strength.
22 But what is commanded thee, think thereupon with reverence; for it is not needful for thee to see with thine eyes the things that are in secret.
23 Be not curious in unnecessary matters, for more things are shown unto thee than men understand.
