Wycliffe(i)
20 Therfor wherof cometh wisdom, and which is the place of vndurstondyng?
21 It is hid fro the iyen of alle lyuynge men; also it is hid fro briddis of heuene.
22 Perdicioun and deeth seiden, With oure eeris we herden the fame therof.
23 God vndurstondith the weye therof, and he knowith the place therof.
24 For he biholdith the endis of the world, and biholdith alle thingis that ben vndur heuene.
25 `Which God made weiyte to wyndis, and weiede watris in mesure.
26 Whanne he settide lawe to reyn, and weie to tempestis sownynge;
27 thanne he siy wisdom, and telde out, and made redi, and souyte out.
28 And he seide to man, Lo! the drede of the Lord, thilke is wisdom; and to go awei fro yuel, is vndurstondyng.
