Wisdom 9:15

15 For the corruptible body presseth down the soul, and the earthy tabernacle weigheth down the mind that museth upon many things.

Wisdom 9:15 In-Context

13 "For what man is he that can know the counsel of God? Or who can think what the will of the Lord is?
14 For the thoughts of mortal men are miserable, and our devices are but uncertain.
15 For the corruptible body presseth down the soul, and the earthy tabernacle weigheth down the mind that museth upon many things.
16 And hardly do we guess aright at things that are upon earth, and with labor do we find the things that are before us; but the things that are in heaven, who hath searched out?
17 And Thy counsel, who hath known, except Thou give wisdom and send Thy holy Spirit from above?
