19 Therefore, the zeal for instruction is love, and love is the keeping of her laws, and the keeping of her laws is the perfection of incorruptibility,
20 while incorruptibility makes us near to God.
21 And so, the desire for wisdom leads to an everlasting kingdom.
22 If, therefore, your delight is in thrones and scepters, O kings of the people, love wisdom, so that you may reign forever;
23 love the light of wisdom, all you who lead the peoples.
24 But what wisdom is, and how she was made, I will report, and I will not hide the mysteries of God from you, but I will investigate her from the beginning of her birth, and I will place the knowledge of her in the light, and will not pass over the truth.
25 Neither will I hold to the path that dwindles away with envy, because such a man will not partake in wisdom.
