Wisdom 9:5-7

Common English Bible

⁵ I’m your servant and the son of one of your servants. I’m just a weak human who will live a short life as other humans do. And I’m the least of all humans when it comes to understanding judgment and laws properly. ⁶ Indeed, even if somebody might be thought of as perfect, this person is nothing without your wisdom. ⁷ But you chose me to be king over your people and to be a judge of your sons and daughters.
