Proverbs 3:14-22

¹⁴For the merchandise of it is better than the merchandise of silver, and the gain thereof than fine gold.

¹⁵She is more precious than rubies; and all the things thou canst desire are not to be compared unto her.

¹⁶Length of days is in her right hand; in her left hand are riches and honour.

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

¹⁸She is a tree of life to them that lay hold upon her, and happy is every one that holdest her fast.

¹⁹The LORD by wisdom founded the earth; by understanding He established the heavens.

²⁰By His knowledge the depths were broken up, and the skies drop down the dew.

²¹My son, let not them depart from thine eyes; keep sound wisdom and discretion;

²²So shall they be life unto thy soul, and grace to thy neck.
