15 She has lived with us from ancient times,and generations to come will rely on her.
16 To fear the Lord is Wisdom at her fullest;she satisfies us completely with her gifts
17 and fills our homes and barnswith all that our hearts can desire.
18 To fear the Lord is the flower of Wisdomthat blossoms with peace and good health.
19 She sends knowledge and understanding like the rain,and increases the honour of those who receive her.
20 To fear the Lord is the root of Wisdom;her branches are long life.
22 There is no excuse for unjustified anger; it can bring about your downfall.
