Ecclesiasticus 42 - Revised Version with Apocrypha 1885, 1895(RV1895)

1

2Of the law of the Most High, Sure keeping is good, where an evil wife is;

And where many hands are, shut thou close.

7Whatsoever thou handest over, let it be by number and weight;

a laughingstock to thine enemies,

A byword in the city and notorious among the people,

And shame thee before the multitude.

12 signs of the world,

19 Is. 46.10. Cp. Is. 41.22. Declaring the things that are past, and the things that shall be,

And revealing the traces of hidden things.

20 Cp. Is. 29.15. No thought escapeth him;

Ps. 139.4. See Wis. 1.6-9. There is not a word hid from him.

21 Cp. ch. 16.26,27. The mighty works of his wisdom he hath ordered,

Who is from everlasting to everlasting:

ch. 18.6. Nothing hath been added unto them, nor diminished from them;

And See Is. 40.13.he had no need of any counsellor.

22 Cp. Ps. 104.24. How desirable are all his works!

One may behold this even unto a spark.

23All these things live and remain for ever in all manner of uses,

And ch. 16.28.they are all obedient.

24 ch. 33.15. All things are double one against another:

And he hath made nothing imperfect.

25One thing establisheth the good things of another:

And who shall be filled with beholding his glory?
