10. And thy barns shall be filled with abundance, and thy presses shall run over with wine.
11. My son, reject not the correction of the Lord: and do not faint when thou art chastised by him:
12. For whom the Lord loveth, he chastiseth: and as a father in the son he pleaseth himself.
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 chiefest and purest gold:
15. She is more precious than all riches: and all the things that are desired, are not to be compared with 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.
19. The Lord by wisdom hath founded the earth, hath established the heavens by prudence.
20. By his wisdom the depths have broken out, and the clouds grow thick with dew
21. My son, let not these things depart from thy eyes: keep the law and counsel:
22. And there shall be life to thy soul, and grace to thy mouth.
