A Studying from Knowledge 7:22-8:1
22 for knowledge, the fashioner of all issues, taught me.
There may be in her a spirit that’s clever, holy,
distinctive, manifold, refined,
agile, clear, unpolluted,
distinct, invulnerable, loving the great, eager,
23 irresistible, beneficent, humane,
steadfast, certain, free from anxiousness,
omnipotent, overseeing all,
and penetrating via all spirits
which can be clever, pure, and altogether refined.
24 For knowledge is extra cell than any movement;
due to her pureness she pervades and penetrates all issues.
25 For she is a breath of the ability of God
and a pure emanation of the glory of the Almighty;
subsequently nothing defiled positive aspects entrance into her.
26 For she is a mirrored image of everlasting gentle,
a spotless mirror of the working of God,
and a picture of his goodness.
27 Though she is however one, she will do all issues,
and whereas remaining in herself, she renews all issues;
in each era she passes into holy souls
and makes them pals of God and prophets,
28 for God loves nothing a lot as the one who lives with knowledge.
29 She is extra stunning than the solar
and excels each constellation of the celebrities.
In contrast with the sunshine she is discovered to be extra radiant,
30 for it’s succeeded by the night time,
however towards knowledge evil doesn’t prevail.
1 She reaches mightily from one finish of the earth to the opposite,
and she or he orders all issues nicely.
