| 15 | She is more precious than jewels; nothing you desire can equal 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 | Long life is in her right hand; in her left, 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. | |
| 17 | Her ways are pleasant, and all her paths, peaceful. | Her ways are ways of pleasantness, and all her paths are peace. | Her ways are pleasant ways, and all her paths are peace. | |
