Proverbs 8:14-21
New King James Version
Proverbs 8:14-21
New King James Version
14 Counsel is mine, and sound wisdom;
I am understanding, (A)I have strength.
15 (B)By me kings reign,
And rulers decree justice.
16 By me princes rule, and nobles,
All the judges of [a]the earth.
17 (C)I love those who love me,
And (D)those who seek me diligently will find me.
18 (E)Riches and honor are with me,
Enduring riches and righteousness.
19 My fruit is better than gold, yes, than fine gold,
And my revenue than choice silver.
20 I [b]traverse the way of righteousness,
In the midst of the paths of justice,
21 That I may cause those who love me to inherit wealth,
That I may fill their treasuries.
