Proverbs 3:13-18

13Joyful is the person who finds wisdom, the one who gains understanding.

14For wisdom is more profitable than silver, and her wages are better than gold.

15Wisdom is more precious than rubies; nothing you desire can compare with her.

16She offers you long life in her right hand, and riches and honor in her left.

17She will guide you down delightful paths; all her ways are satisfying.

18Wisdom is a tree of life to those who embrace her; happy are those who hold her tightly.
