9 Yet wisdom has freed from sorrow those who are self-observant.
10 She led the just man, this fugitive of his brother's wrath, by the right ways, and revealed to him the kingdom of God, and gave him the knowledge of holiness, honored him in his labors, and completed his labors.
11 In the midst of encircling deceit, she flowed around him and made him honest.
12 She guarded him from his enemies, and she defended him from seducers, and she gave him a strong conflict so that he might overcome and might know that the power of all things is wisdom.
13 She did not abandon the just man when he was sold, but freed him from sinners; she went down with him into the pit,
14 and she did not abandon him in chains, while she brought him the scepter of the kingdom and power against those who oppressed him, and revealed them to be liars who had dishonored him, and gave him everlasting glory.
15 She freed this just people and the blameless offspring, from the nations that had oppressed them.
