8. All the words of my mouth are in righteousness; there is nothing crooked or perverse in them.
9. They are all plain to him that understandeth, and right to them that find knowledge.
10. Receive my instruction, and not silver; and knowledge rather than choice gold.
11. For wisdom is better than rubies; and all the things that may be desired are not to be compared unto her.
12. I wisdom have made subtilty my dwelling, and find out knowledge and discretion.
13. The fear of the LORD is to hate evil: pride, and arrogancy, and the evil way, and the froward mouth, do I hate.
14. Counsel is mine, and sound knowledge: I am understanding; I have might.
15. By me kings reign, and princes decree justice.
