Sirach 42:15–25

I will now remember the works of the Lord, and I will declare the things I have seen. By the words of the Lord are his works. 16The sun giving light hath looked upon all things, and full of the glory of the Lord is his work. 17Hath not the Lord made the saints to declare all his wonderful works, which the Lord Almighty hath firmly settled to be established for his glory? 18He hath searched out the deep, and the heart of men: and considered their crafty devices. 19For the Lord knoweth all knowledge, and hath beheld the signs of the world, he declareth the things that are past, and the things that are to come, and revealeth the traces of hidden things. 20No thought escapeth him, and no word can hide itself from him. 21He hath beautified the glorious works of his wisdom: and he is from eternity to eternity, and to him nothing may be added, 22Nor can he be diminished, and he hath no need of any counsellor. 23O how desirable are all his works, and what we can know is but as a spark! 24All these things live, and remain for ever, and for every use all things obey him. 25All things are double, one against another, and he hath made nothing defective.
