The King James Version Bible

Wisdom of Solomon 8:15-18

  1. Horrible tyrants shall be afraid, when they do but hear of me; I shall be found good among the multitude, and valiant in war.

  2. After I am come into mine house, I will repose myself with her: for her conversation hath no bitterness; and to live with her hath no sorrow, but mirth and joy.

  3. Now when I considered these things in myself, and pondered them in my heart, how that to be allied unto wisdom is immortality;

  4. And great pleasure it is to have her friendship; and in the works of her hands are infinite riches; and in the exercise of conference with her, prudence; and in talking with her, a good report; I went about seeking how to take her to me.
