Proverbs 3:14-20
14For her 1profit is better than the profit of silver And her gain better than fine gold.15She is 2more precious than 3jewels; And nothing you desire compares with her.1645Long life is in her right hand; In her left hand are 6riches and honor.17Her 7ways are pleasant ways And all her paths are 8peace.18She is a 9tree of life to those who take hold of her, And happy are all who hold her fast.19The Lord 10by wisdom founded the earth, By understanding He 11established the heavens.20By His knowledge the 12deeps were broken up And the 13skies drip with dew.
