Proverbs 3:13-18
Happy is the man that findeth wisdom, And the man that getteth understanding.For the gaining of it is better than the gaining of silver, And the profit thereof than fine gold.She is more precious than rubies: And none of the things thou canst desire are to be compared unto her.Length of days is in her right hand; In her left hand are riches and honor.Her ways are ways of pleasantness, And all her paths are peace.She is a tree of life to them that lay hold upon her: And happy is every one that retaineth her.

Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom; Yea, with all thy getting get understanding.Exalt her, and she will promote thee; She will bring thee to honor, when thou dost embrace her.She will give to thy head a chaplet of grace; A crown of beauty will she deliver to thee.
