- My son, do not reject the discipline of the LORD Or loathe His reproof,
- For whom the LORD loves He reproves, Even as a father corrects the son in whom he delights.
- How blessed is the man who finds wisdom And the man who gains understanding.
- For her profit is better than the profit of silver And her gain better than fine gold.
- She is more precious than jewels; And nothing you desire compares with her.
|
- Long life is in her right hand; In her left hand are riches and honor.
- Her ways are pleasant ways And all her paths are peace.
- She is a tree of life to those who take hold of her, And happy are all who hold her fast.
- The LORD by wisdom founded the earth, By understanding He established the heavens.
- By His knowledge the deeps were broken up And the skies drip with dew.
