12Wisdom with riches is more profitable, and bringeth more advantage to them that see the sun.
13For as wisdom is a defence, so money is a defence: but learning and wisdom excel in this, that they give life to him that possesseth them.
14Consider the works of God, that no man can correct whom he hath despised.
15In the good day enjoy good things, and beware beforehand of the evil day: for God hath made both the one and the other, that man may not find against him any just complaint.
16These things also I saw in the days of my vanity: A just man perisheth in his justice, and a wicked man liveth a long time in his wickedness.
17Be not over just: and be not more wise than is necessary, lest thou become stupid.
18Be not overmuch wicked: and be not foolish, lest thou die before thy time.
19It is good that thou shouldst hold up the just, yea and from him withdraw not thy hand: for he that feareth God, neglecteth nothing.
20Wisdom hath strengthened the wise more than ten princes of the city.
