Proverbs Chapter 3 13- 26

Happy is the man who finds wisdom,
and the man that gets understanding.
For it is more profitable than silver,
and yields better returns than gold.
She is more precious than rubies;
nothing you desire can compare with her.
Long life is in her right hand;
and in her left hand riches and honour.
Her ways are ways of pleasantness,
and all her paths are peace.
She is a tree of life to them that embrace her;
and happy is every one that retains her.
The LORD by wisdom has founded the earth;
by understanding has he established the heavens.
By his knowledge the depths are broken up,
and the clouds drop down the dew.
My son, let not them depart from your eyes;
keep sound wisdom and discretion;
So shall they be life unto your soul,
and grace to your neck.
Then shall you walk in your way safely,
and your foot shall not stumble.
When you lie down,
you shall not be afraid,
yes, you shall lie down,
and your sleep shall be sweet.
Be not afraid of sudden disaster,
neither of the desolation of the wicked,
when it comes.
For the LORD shall be your confidence,
and shall keep your foot from being snared.
