Proverbs 3:13-20

International Standard Version

¹³ How joyful is the man who finds wisdom,
    and the man who gains understanding,
¹⁴ because her profit is better than the profit of silver,
    and her yield than fine gold.
¹⁵ She is more precious than rubies,
    and nothing you desire compares with her.
¹⁶ Long life is in her right hand,
    and in her left are riches and honor.
¹⁷ Her ways are pleasant ways,
    and all her paths are peaceful.
¹⁸ She is a tree of life for those who embrace her,
    and whoever clutches her tightly will be joyful.
