Сторінка 136 - Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his sight : but all things are naked and open to the eyes of him with whom we have to do 2.
Сторінка 41 - Receive my instruction and not silver ; and knowledge rather than choice gold. For wisdom is better than rubies ; and all the things that may be desired arc not to be compared to it I, Wisdom, dwell with prudence, and find out knowledge of witty inventions.
Сторінка 137 - For his eyes are upon the ways of man, And he seeth all his goings. There is no darkness, nor shadow of death, Where the workers of iniquity may hide themselves.
