Wisdom 7:6-8

Common English Bible

⁶ There’s only one way into life for everyone, and only one way out as well.

⁷ Because of this, I prayed, and the ability to reason wisely was given to me. I called out, and Wisdom’s spirit came to me. ⁸ I chose wisdom above all the symbols of royalty and over any throne. In comparison to her, I counted riches as nothing.
