8 “All the words of my mouth are in righteousness, None of them twisted or crooked,
9 “All of them plain to him who understands, And straight to those who find knowledge.
10 “Accept my discipline, and not silver, And knowledge rather than choice gold;
11 “For wisdom is better than rubies, And all delights are not comparable to her.
12 “I, wisdom, have dwelt with insight, And I find knowledge, foresight.
13 “The fear of יהוה is to hate evil. I have hated pride and arrogance, And the evil way, And the perverse mouth.
14 “Counsel is mine, and sound wisdom; I am understanding, mightiness is mine.
