While Thinking
Lord
Reflecting on these things and considering in my mind and heart (Wisdom as a gift from God) immortality lies in the kinship of wisdom and associating her there is prudence in sharing her discourse.
I went about seeking her on my own. Now I came by her in a humble nature. The God of my ancestors the Lord of mercy who made al things by his word in his wisdom established humankind to care for the creatures produced by him and govern the world in holiness and righteousness.
He gave me wisdom to consort at his throne. Now I pray to you my God, do not reject me from among your children, for I am your servant, the child of your maidservant a man weak and short lived, also lacking comprehension of judgement and of laws.
Now with you was wisdom, she knows your works and was present when you made the world, she who understands what is pleasing in your eyes. Send forth from your glorious throne, you dispatched her that I may know what is pleasing to you my Lord.
For she knows and understands all things and will guide me prudently in all my affairs, while being safeguarded by her glory so my deeds will be acceptable.
If wisdom who comes from you be lacking then one will count for nothing, for the corruptible body burdens the soul and only with the gift of wisdom and the word of you my Lord with faith in you can I be free….(Amen)
