Wisdom 6:23-25
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
23 Neither shall I admit consuming jealousy to my company,
because that can have no fellowship with Wisdom.(A)
24 A multitude of the wise is the safety of the world,
and a prudent king, the stability of the people;(B)
25 so take instruction from my words, to your profit.
