Proverbs 8:17-22

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.

²²The Lord made me the beginning of his ways for his works.
