12 Wisdom shines bright and never grows dim; those who love her and look for her can easily find her.
13 She is quick to make herself known to anyone who desires her.
14 Get up early in the morning to find her, and you will have no problem; you will find her sitting at your door.
15 To fasten your attention on Wisdom is to gain perfect understanding. If you look for her, you will soon find peace of mind,
16 because she will be looking for those who are worthy of her, and she will find you wherever you are. She is kind and will be with you in your every thought.
17 Wisdom begins when you sincerely want to learn. To desire Wisdom is to love her;
18 to love her is to keep her laws; to keep her laws is to be certain of immortality;
