16. By me princes rule, and nobles, even all the judges of the earth.
17. I love them that love me; and those that seek me diligently shall find me.
18. Riches and honour are with me; yea, durable riches and righteousness.
19. My fruit is better than gold, yea, than fine gold; and my revenue than choice silver.
20. I walk in the way of righteousness, in the midst of the paths of judgment:
21. That I may cause those that love me to inherit substance, and that I may fill their treasuries.
22. The Lord possessed me in the beginning of his way, before his works of old.
