Proverbs 8:12-14

¹²I, wisdom, and understanding of what is smart to do, cannot be separated. We are like two people who live in the same house. I know how to be wise and how to make smart decisions.

¹³All the people who revere Yahweh hate evil. I, wisdom, hate people who are proud and people who think they are more important than others. I hate people who behave in an evil way and those who say things to deceive others.

¹⁴I give people good advice and I enable them to do things that are wise. I understand how things really are, and I am strong.
