1. Wisdom will praise her own mind, and she will be honored by God, and she will be glorified in the midst of her people.

2. And she will open her mouth in the churches of the Most High, and she will be glorified in the sight of his virtue.

3. And in the midst of her own people, she will be exalted. And she will be admired by the holy assembly.

5. "I went forth from the mouth of the Most High, as the first-born before all creatures.

6. I caused an unfailing light to arise in the heavens. And I covered all the earth like a cloud.

7. I lived in the highest places, and my throne is in the pillar of a cloud.
