12 I, wisdom, dwell with prudence, and knowledge of discretion I find out. 13 The fear of YHWH is to hate evil; I hate pride, and arrogance, and the way of evil, and the mouth of perversity. 14 Counsel and sound wisdom are unto me; I am understanding; unto me is strength. 15 By me kings reign, and rulers decree justice. 16 By me princes rule, and nobles—all those judging with righteousness. 17 I love those who love me, and those seeking me earnestly will find me. 18 Riches and honor are with me, surpassing wealth and righteousness. 19 Better is my fruit than gold, even pure gold, and my produce than choice silver. 20 In the way of righteousness I walk, in the midst of the paths of justice, 21 to cause those loving me to inherit substance, and their treasuries I will fill. Proverbs 8:12-21, Berean Literal Bible. Public domain.
