The King James Version Bible

Proverbs 8:12-19

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

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

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

  4. By me kings reign, and princes decree justice.

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

  6. I love them that love me; and those that seek me early shall find me.

  7. Riches and honour are with me; yea, durable riches and righteousness.

  8. My fruit is better than gold, yea, than fine gold; and my revenue than choice silver.
