8 All the words of my mouth are righteous;nothing in them is twisted or crooked.
9 All of them are straightforward to those who understand,and upright for the knowledgeable.
10 Take my instruction rather than silver,knowledge rather than choice gold.
11 Wisdom is better than pearls;nothing is more delightful than she.
12 I, Wisdom, dwell with prudence;I have found knowledge and discretion.
13 To fear the Lord is to hate evil.I hate pride and arrogance,the path of evil and corrupt speech.
14 I have advice and ability,as well as understanding and strength.
