7 LIBER SAPIENTIAE SOLOMONIS Wisdom - Wycliffe Bible(14c) Wisdom - Douay Rheims(17c) Reference
22Est enim in illa spiritus intelligentiæ,
sanctus, unicus, multiplex, subtilis,
disertus, mobilis, incoinquinatus, certus,
suavis, amans bonum, acutus,
quem nihil vetat, benefaciens,
 The nature of Wisdom. Wis.7.22-8.1
23humanus, benignus, stabilis, certus, securus,
omnem habens virtutem, omnia prospiciens,
et qui capiat omnes spiritus,
intelligibilis, mundus, subtilis.
  
24Omnibus enim mobilibus mobilior est sapientia:
attingit autem ubique propter suam munditiam.
  
25Vapor est enim virtutis Dei,
et emanatio quædam est claritatis omnipotentis Dei sincera,
et ideo nihil inquinatum in eam incurrit:
  
26candor est enim lucis æternæ,
et speculum sine macula Dei majestatis,
et imago bonitatis illius.
  
27Et cum sit una, omnia potest;
et in se permanens omnia innovat:
et per nationes in animas sanctas se transfert;
amicos Dei et prophetas constituit.
  
28Neminem enim diligit Deus,
nisi eum qui cum sapientia inhabitat.
  
29Est enim hæc speciosior sole,
et super omnem dispositionem stellarum:
luci comparata, invenitur prior.
  
30Illi enim succedit nox;
sapientiam autem non vincit malitia.		  
1Attingit ergo a fine usque ad finem fortiter,
et disponit omnia suaviter. 		 

Notes: For the Bible in Latin, I have used the Vulgate text at the Clementine Vulgate Project website.
The only English translations from the Vulgate that are readily available are John Wycliffe's 14th century English Bible, and the the Douay Rheims/Challoner versions. I have used the Wycliffe Bible text from the Wesley Centre website, where you can view this Bible in a number of formats. I have used the Douay Rheims Text at the Unbound Bible website. You can view the Douay Rheims Bible in a more readable format at DRBO.ORG website.
The katapi New Study Bible reference section: displays links to parallel passages. Passage headings are generally as printed in the Bible Society's "Good News Bible", 1976. To view the Greek Text on this page, you will need a Unicode font capable of displaying extended Greek characters. To find out about Unicode fonts, go to Alan Wood's Unicode Resources.
