“Wisdom crieth without; she uttereth her voice in the streets:”
“She is a tree of life to them that lay hold upon her: and happy is every one that retaineth her.”
“The Lord possessed me in the beginning of his way, before his works of old.”
“Then I was by him, as one brought up with him: and I was daily his delight, rejoicing always before him;”
“For whoso findeth me findeth life, and shall obtain favour of the Lord.”
“I love them that love me; and those that seek me early shall find me.”
“Wisdom hath builded her house, she hath hewn out her seven pillars:”
“She crieth at the gates, at the entry of the city, at the coming in at the doors.”
“She standeth in the top of high places, by the way in the places of the paths.”
“Rejoicing in the habitable part of his earth; and my delights were with the sons of men.”
“Exalt her, and she shall promote thee: she shall bring thee to honour, when thou dost embrace her.”
“Say unto wisdom, Thou art my sister; and call understanding thy kinswoman:”
“Doth not wisdom cry? and understanding put forth her voice?”
“I was set up from everlasting, from the beginning, or ever the earth was.”
“Blessed is the man that heareth me, watching daily at my gates, waiting at the posts of my doors.”
“She shall give to thine head an ornament of grace: a crown of glory shall she deliver to thee.”
“Counsel is mine, and sound wisdom: I am understanding; I have strength.”
“I wisdom dwell with prudence, and find out knowledge of witty inventions.”
“Take fast hold of instruction; let her not go: keep her; for she is thy life.”
“Now therefore hearken unto me, O ye children: for blessed are they that keep my ways.”
“That I may cause those that love me to inherit substance; and I will fill their treasures.”
