"With what wisdom shall he be furnished that holdeth the plough, and that glorieth in the goad, that driveth the oxen therewith, and is occupied in their labours, and his whole talk is about the offspring of bulls?"
Nel contesto
24When the dead is at rest, let his remembrance rest, and comfort him in the departing of his spirit.
25The wisdom of a scribe cometh by his time of leisure: and he that is less in action, shall receive wisdom.
26With what wisdom shall he be furnished that holdeth the plough, and that glorieth in the goad, that driveth the oxen therewith, and is occupied in their labours, and his whole talk is about the offspring of bulls?
27He shall give his mind to turn up furrows, and his care is to give the kine fodder.
28So every craftsman and workmaster that laboureth night and day, he who maketh graven seals, and by his continual diligence varieth the figure: he shall give his mind to the resemblance of the picture, and by his watching shall finish the work.
