Proverbs 8:10-16

1. 10 Receive my instruction, and not silver; and knowledge rather than choice gold.

2. 11 For wisdom is better than rubies; and all the things that may be desired are not to be compared to it.

3. 12 I wisdom dwell with prudence, and find out knowledge of witty inventions.

4. 13 The fear of the LORD is to hate evil: pride, and arrogancy, and the evil way, and the froward mouth, do I hate.

5. 14 Counsel is mine, and sound wisdom: I am understanding; I have strength.

6. 15 By me kings reign, and princes decree justice.

7. 16 By me princes rule, and nobles, even all the judges of the earth.
