"He that wanteth understanding thinketh vain things: and the foolish, and erring man, thinketh foolish things."
Nel contesto
21And his ways who shall understand, and the storm, which no eye of man see?
22For many of his works are hidden: hut the works of his justice who shall declare? or who shall endure? for the testament is far from some, and the examination of all is in the end.
23He that wanteth understanding thinketh vain things: and the foolish, and erring man, thinketh foolish things.
24Hearken to me, my son, and learn the discipline of understanding, and attend to my words in thy heart.
25And I will shew forth good doctrine in equity, and will seek to declare wisdom: and attend to my words in thy heart, whilst with equity of spirit I tell thee the virtues that God hath put upon his works from the beginning, and I shew forth in truth his knowledge.
