Proverbs 3:11-20
My son, do not hate the Lord’s training.
Do not object when he corrects you.
The Lord trains those he loves.
He is like a father who trains the son he is pleased with.
Blessed is the one who finds wisdom.
Blessed is the one who gains understanding.
Wisdom pays better than silver does.
She earns more than gold does.
She is worth more than rubies.
Nothing you want can compare with her.
Long life is in her right hand.
In her left hand are riches and honor.
Her ways are pleasant ways.
All her paths lead to peace.
She is a tree of life to those who take hold of her.
Those who hold her close will be blessed.
By wisdom the Lord laid the earth’s foundations.
Through understanding he set the heavens in place.
By his knowledge the seas were separated,
and the clouds dropped their dew.
