The Benefits of Finding Wisdom
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;
18 She is a tree of life to those who grasp her, and those who hold her fast are happy.
19 The LORD by wisdom founded the earth, established the heavens by understanding:
20 By his knowledge the depths are split, and the clouds drop down dew.
