Proverbs 3:13-20

13Blessed are those who find wisdom, those who gain understanding,

14for she is more profitable than silver and yields better returns than gold.

15She is more precious than rubies; nothing you desire can compare with her.

16Long life is in her right hand; in her left hand are riches and honor.

17Her ways are pleasant ways, and all her paths are peace.

18She is a tree of life to those who take hold of her; those who hold her fast will be blessed.

19By wisdom the LORD laid the earth’s foundations, by understanding he set the heavens in place;

20by his knowledge the watery depths were divided, and the clouds let drop the dew.
