Sirach 17:1-4 World English Bible (WEB)

1. The Lord created man of the earth, And turned him back to it again.

2. He gave them days by number, and a set time, And gave them authority over the things that are thereon.

3. He endued them with strength proper to them; And made them according to his own image.

4. He put the fear of man upon all flesh, And gave him to have dominion over beasts and fowls.
