11. He shall shew forth the discipline he hath learned, and shall glory in the law of the covenant of the Lord.
12. Many shall praise his wisdom, and it shall never be forgotten.
13. The memory of him shall not depart away, and his name shall be in request from generation to generation.
14. Nations shall declare his wisdom, and the church shall shew forth his praise.
15. If he continue, he shall leave a name above a thousand: and if he rest, it shall be to his advantage.

17. By a voice he saith: Hear me, ye divine offspring, and bud forth as the rose planted by the brooks of waters.

21. All the works of the Lord are exceeding good.

24. The works of all flesh are before him, and there is nothing hid from his eyes.
25. He seeth from eternity to eternity, and there is nothing wonderful before him.
