15. Wisdom is more precious than rubies.Nothing you want is equal to it.
16. With her right hand wisdom offers you a long life.With her left hand she gives you riches and honor.
17. Wisdom will make your life pleasant.It will bring you peace.
18. As a tree makes fruit, wisdom gives life to those who use it.Everyone who uses wisdom will be happy.
19. Using his wisdom, the Lord made the earth.Using his understanding, he set the sky in place.
20. Using his knowledge, he made rivers flow from underground springs.And he made the clouds drop rain on the earth.
21. My child, hold on to wisdom and reason.Don’t let them out of your sight!
22. They will give you life.Like a necklace, they will beautify your life.
