Proverbs

¹¹For wisdom is better than rubies; and all the things that may be desired are not to be compared unto her. ¹²I wisdom have made subtilty my dwelling, and find out knowledge and discretion. ¹³The fear of the LORD is to hate evil: pride, and arrogancy, and the evil way, and the froward mouth, do I hate. ¹⁴Counsel is mine, and sound knowledge: I am understanding; I have might. ¹⁵By me kings reign, and princes decree justice. ¹⁶By me princes rule, and nobles, even all the judges of the earth. ¹⁷I love them that love me; and those that seek me diligently shall find me.
