Proverbs 8:13-19

¹³The fear of the Lord hates unrighteousness, and insolence, and pride, and the ways of wicked men; and I hate the perverse ways of bad men.

¹⁴Counsel and safety are mine: prudence is mine, and strength is mine.

¹⁵By me kings reign, and princes decree justice.

¹⁶By me nobles become great, and monarchs by me rule over the earth.

¹⁷I love those that love me; and they that seek me shall find me.

¹⁸Wealth and glory belong to me; yea, abundant possessions and righteousness.

¹⁹It is better to have my fruit than to have gold and precious stones; and my produce is better than choice silver.
