Proverbs 3:13-18

DouayRheims(i) 13 Blessed is the man that findeth wisdom, and is rich in prudence: 14 The purchasing thereof is better than the merchandise of silver, and her fruit than the chief and purest gold: 15 She is more precious than all riches: and all the things that are desired, are not to be compared to her. 16 Length of days is in her right hand, and in her left hand riches and glory. 17 Her ways are beautiful ways, and all her paths are peaceable. 18 She is a tree of life to them that lay hold on her: and he that shall retain her is blessed.
