Proverbs 3:12-17

¹²Because whomever the Lord loveth he admonisheth; and as a father who delighteth in his son.

¹³Happy the man that hath found wisdom, and the man that acquireth understanding.

¹⁴For the obtaining of her is better than the obtaining of silver, and better than fine gold is her product.

¹⁵She is more precious than pearls; and all the things thou valuest are not equal unto her.

¹⁶Length of days is in her right hand: in her left are riches and honor.

¹⁷Her ways are ways of pleasantness, and all her paths are peace.
