Proverbs 8:11-18 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

11. For wisdom is better than all the most precious things: and whatsoever may be desired cannot be compared to

12. I wisdom dwell in counsel, and am present in learned thoughts.

13. The fear of the Lord hateth evil: I hate arrogance, and pride, and every wicked way, and a mouth with a double tongue.

14. Counsel and equity is mine, prudence is mine, strength is mine.

15. By me kings reign, and lawgivers decree just things,

16. By me princes rule, and the mighty decree justice.

17. I love them that love me: and they that in the morning early watch for me, shall find me.

18. With me are riches and glory, glorious riches and justice.
