| 13 | Happy [blessed, considered fortunate, to be admired] is the man who finds [skillful and godly] wisdom, And the man who gains understanding and insight [learning from God’s word and life’s experiences], | Blessed is the one who finds wisdom, and the one who gets understanding, | Blessed are those who find wisdom, those who gain understanding, | |
| 14 | For wisdom’s profit is better than the profit of silver, And her gain is better than fine gold. | for the gain from her is better than gain from silver and her profit better than gold. | for she is more profitable than silver and yields better returns than gold. | |
| 15 | She is more precious than rubies; And nothing you can wish for compares with her [in value]. | She is more precious than jewels, and nothing you desire can compare with her. | She is more precious than rubies; nothing you desire can compare with her. | |
| 16 | Long life is in her right hand; In her left hand are riches and honor. | Long life is in her right hand; in her left hand are riches and honor. | Long life is in her right hand; in her left hand are riches and honor. | |
