Prov 3:13-18
3 Happy is the man who finds wisdom,
And the man who gains understanding;
14 For her proceeds are better than the profits of silver,
And her gain than fine gold.
15 She is more precious than rubies,
And all the things you may desire cannot compare with her.
16 Length of days is in her right hand,
In her left hand riches and honor.
17 Her ways are ways of pleasantness,
And all her paths are peace.
18 She is a tree of life to those who take hold of her,
And happy are all who retain her.
NKJV
Prov 3:13-18
3 You're blessed when you meet Lady Wisdom,
when you make friends with Madame Insight.
14 She's worth far more than money in the bank;
her friendship is better than a big salary.
15 Her value exceeds all the trappings of wealth;
nothing you could wish for holds a candle to her.
16 With one hand she gives long life,
with the other she confers recognition.
17 Her manner is beautiful,
her life wonderfully complete.
18 She's the very Tree of Life to those who embrace her.
Hold her tight — and be blessed!
