Sirach 42:16-23
-
16 The sun that giveth light looketh upon all things, and the work thereof is full of the glory of the Lord.
-
17 The Lord hath not given power to the saints to declare all his marvellous works, which the Almighty Lord firmly settled, that whatsoever is might be established for his glory.
-
18 He seeketh out the deep, and the heart, and considereth their crafty devices: for the Lord knoweth all that may be known, and he beholdeth the signs of the world.
-
19 He declareth the things that are past, and for to come, and revealeth the steps of hidden things.
-
20 No thought escapeth him, neither any word is hidden from him.
-
21 He hath garnished the excellent works of his wisdom, and he is from everlasting to everlasting: unto him may nothing be added, neither can he be diminished, and he hath no need of any counsellor.
-
22 Oh how desirable are all his works! and that a man may see even to a spark.
-
23 All these things live and remain for ever for all uses, and they are all obedient.
