6. How beautiful it is for a grey head to have judgment, and for elders to know counsel!
7. How beautiful it is for those who are aged to have wisdom, and for those who are honored to have understanding and counsel!
8. Great experience is the crown of the aged, and the fear of God is their glory.
9. I have magnified nine things, overlooked by the heart; and a tenth, I will declare to men with my tongue:
10. a man who finds joy in his children, and one who lives to see the undoing of his enemies.
11. Blessed is he who lives with a wise wife, and he who has not slipped with his tongue, and he who has not served those unworthy of himself.
12. Blessed is he who finds a true friend, and he who describes justice to an attentive ear.
13. How great is he who finds wisdom and knowledge! But there is no one above him who fears the Lord.
14. The fear of God has set itself above all things.
15. Blessed is the man to whom it has been given to have the fear of God. He who holds to it, to whom can he be compared?
