23. Hagar’s children,who seek earthly understanding,the traders of Merran and Teman,the storytellers and knowledge seekers,haven’t learned the way of Wisdom,nor have they remembered her paths.
24. Israel, how great is God’s houseand spacious is God’s domain!
25. It is great and has no end;it is high and immeasurable!
26. The giants were born there,the famous onesfrom the beginning of time,who were very largeand experts in war.
27. God didn’t select them or give themthe way of true knowledge.
28. So they perishedbecause they didn’t have Wisdom;they perishedthrough their carelessness.
