14 Her acquisition is better than trading in silver, and her fruit is better than the first and purest 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 all riches, and all that can be desired cannot prevail in comparison to her. 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 Length of days is at her right hand, and at her left hand is wealth and glory. 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.
17 Her ways are beautiful ways, and all her paths are peaceful. Her ways are ways of pleasantness, and all her paths are peace. Her ways are pleasant ways, and all her paths are peace.
18 She is a tree of life to those who overtake her, and he who shall take hold of her is blessed. She is a tree of life to those who lay hold of her; those who hold her fast are called blessed. She is a tree of life to those who take hold of her; those who hold her fast will be blessed.
