10 Receive my instruction rather than silver; Knowledge rather than choice gold.
11 For wisdom is better than rubies. All the things that may be desired can`t be compared to it.
12 "I, wisdom, have made prudence my dwelling. Find out knowledge and discretion.
13 The fear of Yahweh is to hate evil. I hate pride, arrogance, the evil way, and the perverse mouth.
14 Counsel and sound knowledge are mine. I have understanding and power.
15 By me kings reign, And princes decree justice.
16 By me princes rule; Nobles, and all the righteous rulers of the earth.
