Happy[ is] the man[ that] findeth wisdom, and the man[ that] getteth understanding.For the merchandise of it[ is] better than the merchandise of silver, and the gain thereof than fine gold.She[ is] more precious than rubies: and all the things thou canst desire are not to be compared unto her.Length of days[ is] in her right hand;[ and] in her left hand riches and honour.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.
