11 The discipline of the Lord, my son, do not spurn;do not disdain his reproof;
12 For whom the Lord loves he reproves,as a father, the son he favors.
13 Happy the one who finds wisdom,the one who gains understanding!
14 Her profit is better than profit in silver,and better than gold is her revenue;
15 She is more precious than corals,and no treasure of yours can compare with her.
16 Long life is in her right hand,in her left are riches and honor;
17 Her ways are pleasant ways,and all her paths are peace;
