1917 Charles printing of 1912 translation
1. Wisdom found no place where she might dwell; Then a dwelling-place was assigned her in the heavens. 2. Wisdom went forth to make her dwelling among the children of men, And found no dwelling-place: Wisdom returned to her place And took her seat among the angels. 3. And unrighteousness went forth from her chambers: Whom she sought not she found, And dwelt with them, As rain in a desert, And dew on a thirsty land.
