Sapientiae, chapter 15 in the Vulgate version.

There is no KJV of Wisdom, but it does appear in the Apocrypha, as shown below.

Chapter 15 Vulgate

   1 Tu autem, Deus noster, suavis et verus es, patiens et in misericordia disponens omnia.
   2 Etenim, si peccaverimus, tui sumus, scientes potentiam tuam; non peccabimus autem, scientes quoniam apud te sumus computati.
   3 Nosse enim te consummata iustitia est, et scire virtutem tuam radix est immortalitatis.
   4 Nec enim in errorem induxit nos hominum malae artis excogitatio, nec adumbrantium labor sine fructu, effigies maculata per varios colores,
   5 cuius aspectus insensatis in concupiscentiam venit, et diligit mortuae imaginis effigiem sine anima.
   6 Malorum amatores digni sunt, qui spem habeant in talibus et qui faciunt illos et qui diligunt et qui colunt.
   7 Sed et figulus, mollem terram premens laboriose, fingit ad usus nostros unumquodque vas; et de eodem luto fingit, quae mundis operibus in usum sunt, vasa, et quae his sunt contraria, omnia similiter; horum autem singulorum vasorum quis utriusque sit usus, iudex est figulus.
   8 Et cum malo labore deum vanum fingit de eodem luto ille, qui paulo ante de terra factus fuerat, et post pusillum reducit se, unde acceptus est, repetitus animae debitum.
   9 Sed cura est illi, non quia laboraturus est, nec quoniam brevis illi vita est, sed concertatur aurificibus et argentariis et aerarios imitatur et gloriam praefert, quoniam res supervacuas fingit.
   10 Cinis est cor eius, et terra despectior spes illius, et luto vilior vita eius,
   11 quoniam ignoravit, qui se finxit et qui inspiravit illi animam, quae operatur, et qui insufflavit ei spiritum vitalem.
   12 Sed et aestimavit lusum esse vitam nostram et conversationem vitae compositam ad lucrum; oportere enim dicit undecumque etiam ex malo acquirere.
   13 Hic enim scit se super omnes delinquere, qui ex terrae materia fragilia vasa et sculptilia fingit.
   14 Omnes enim insipientes et infelices supra modum animae infantis sunt inimici populi tui et per potentiam opprimentes illum.
   15 Quoniam omnia idola nationum deos aestimaverunt, quibus neque oculorum usus est ad videndum, neque nares ad percipiendum spiritum, neque aures ad audiendum, neque digiti manuum ad tractandum, sed et pedes eorum pigri ad ambulandum.
   16 Homo enim fecit illos, et, qui spiritum mutuatus est, is finxit illos; nemo enim sibi similem homo poterit deum fingere:
   17 cum autem sit mortalis, mortuum fingit manibus iniquis. Melior enim est ipse his, quos colit, quia ipse quidem vixit, cum esset mortalis, illi autem numquam.
   18 Sed et animalia miserrima colunt; in insipientia enim, aliis comparata, his sunt deteriora.
   19 Nec pulchra in his inveniuntur, quantum desiderari possit, ut fit in animalium conspectu; effugerunt autem et Dei laudem et benedictionem eius.

Apocrypha

   1 But thou, O God, art gracious and true, longsuffering, and in mercy ordering all things,
   2 For if we sin, we are thine, knowing thy power: but we will not sin, knowing that we are counted thine.
   3 For to know thee is perfect righteousness: yea, to know thy power is the root of immortality.
   4 For neither did the mischievous invention of men deceive us, nor an image spotted with divers colours, the painters fruitless labour;
   5 The sight whereof enticeth fools to lust after it, and so they desire the form of a dead image, that hath no breath.
   6 Both they that make them, they that desire them, and they that worship them, are lovers of evil things, and are worthy to have such things to trust upon.
   7 For the potter, tempering soft earth, fashioneth every vessel with much labour for our service: yea, of the same clay he maketh both the vessels that serve for clean uses, and likewise also all such as serve to the contrary: but what is the use of either sort, the potter himself is the judge.
   8 And employing his labours lewdly, he maketh a vain god of the same clay, even he which a little before was made of earth himself, and within a little while after returneth to the same, out when his life which was lent him shall be demanded.
   9 Notwithstanding his care is, not that he shall have much labour, nor that his life is short: but striveth to excel goldsmiths and silversmiths, and endeavoureth to do like the workers in brass, and counteth it his glory to make counterfeit things.
   10 His heart is ashes, his hope is more vile than earth, and his life of less value than clay:
   11 Forasmuch as he knew not his Maker, and him that inspired into him an active soul, and breathed in a living spirit.
   12 But they counted our life a pastime, and our time here a market for gain: for, say they, we must be getting every way, though it be by evil means.
   13 For this man, that of earthly matter maketh brittle vessels and graven images, knoweth himself to offend above all others.
   14 And all the enemies of thy people, that hold them in subjection, are most foolish, and are more miserable than very babes.
   15 For they counted all the idols of the heathen to be gods: which neither have the use of eyes to see, nor noses to draw breath, nor ears to hear, nor fingers of hands to handle; and as for their feet, they are slow to go.
   16 For man made them, and he that borrowed his own spirit fashioned them: but no man can make a god like unto himself.
   17 For being mortal, he worketh a dead thing with wicked hands: for he himself is better than the things which he worshippeth: whereas he lived once, but they never.
   18 Yea, they worshipped those beasts also that are most hateful: for being compared together, some are worse than others.
   19 Neither are they beautiful, so much as to be desired in respect of beasts: but they went without the praise of God and his blessing.
