Sirach (Ecclesiasticus) 43:27-33 Good News Bible Catholic Edition (GNBDK)

27. We could say much more and never finish,but it all means this: the Lord is everything.

28. How can we find the power to praise him?He is greater than all his creation.

29. The Lord is awesome in his greatness;his power is overwhelming.

30. Though you do your best to praise him,he is greater than you can ever express.Though you honour him tirelessly and with all your strength,you still cannot praise him enough.

31. No one has seen him, no one can describe him;no one can praise him as he deserves.

32. Mysteries greater than these are still unknown;we know only a fraction of his works.

33. The Lord made the universeand then gave wisdom to devout people.
