11. Wisdom is better than pearls;nothing is more delightful than she.
12. I, Wisdom, dwell with prudence;I have found knowledge and discretion.
13. To fear the Lord is to hate evil.I hate pride and arrogance,the path of evil and corrupt speech.
14. I have advice and ability,as well as understanding and strength.
15. By me kings rule,and princes issue righteous decrees.
16. By me rulers govern,and officials judge righteously.
17. I love those who love me;those who seek me will find me.
18. Riches and honor are with me,as well as enduring wealth and righteousness.
19. My fruit is better than gold, even fine gold;my crops are better than choice silver.
20. I walk on the way of righteousness,on the paths of justice,
21. to provide for those who love meand to fill up their treasuries.
