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.
20I walk in ways of righteousness, And am conversant with the paths of judgment;
21That I may divide substance to them that love me, And may fill their treasures with good things.
21aIf I declare to you the things that daily happen, I will remember also to recount the things of old.
