Sirach 43:32-37 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

32. Glorify the Lord as much as you are able, yet still he will far exceed this. For his magnificence is beyond wonder.

33. Bless the Lord and exalt him, as much as you are able. But he is beyond all praise.

34. When you exalt him, use all your ability, and do not cease in this labor. For you can never comprehend him.

35. Who will see him and explain? And who will magnify him, as he is from the beginning?

36. There are many things, hidden from us, which are greater than these things. For we have seen but a few of his works.

37. But the Lord has made all things, and he has given wisdom to those who act with piety.
