This is still a very early look into the unfinished text of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check the text in advance before using in public.
28:20 Wisdom is obeying God
20 So then, where does wisdom come from?
≈Where then, does understanding live?
21 It’s hidden from the eyes of every living creature.
≈It’s even concealed from the birds in the sky.
‘We’ve heard a rumour about it with our ears.’
23 But God understands the path to wisdom,
≈and he knows where it lives,
24 because he can see right around the earth,
and he notices everything under the sky.
25 God determined the weight of the atmosphere,
≈and he dished out the ocean with his measuring cup.
26 He told the rain how to behave,
≈and made the paths for the lightning bolts when it thunders.
27 Then he saw wisdom and declared it.
≈and He established it then searched it out.
28 Then he told humankind,[ref]
‘Listen, obeying the master—that’s wisdom,
along with turning away from doing evil.’
28:28: Psa 111:10; Prv 1:7; 9:10.
