Wisdom 9:6

menu_book Verse in Context

4 give me wisdom, her who sits by you on your thrones. Don’t reject me from among your servants,

5 because I am your servant and the son of your handmaid, a weak and short-lived man, with little power to understand judgment and laws.

6 For even if a man is perfect among the sons of men, if the wisdom that comes from you is not with him, he will count for nothing.

7 You chose me to be king of your people, and a judge for your sons and daughters.

8 You gave a command to build a sanctuary on your holy mountain, and an altar in the city where you live, a copy of the holy tent which you prepared from the beginning.
