XLII. The Dwelling-places of Wisdom and of Unrighteousness.
Project Gutenberg EPUB edition
Charles, R. H. (Robert Henry)
XLII. 1. Wisdom found no place where she might dwell;
Then a dwelling-place was assigned her in the heavens.
2. Wisdom went forth to make her dwelling among the children of men,
And found no dwelling-place:
Wisdom returned to her place
And took her seat among the angels.
3. And unrighteousness went forth from her chambers:
Whom she sought not she found,
And dwelt with them,
As rain in a desert,
And dew on a thirsty land.
