Proverbs 8:11-13
Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

11 for wisdom is better than jewels,
    and all that you may desire cannot compare with her.
12 I, wisdom, dwell in prudence,[a]
    and I find knowledge and discretion.
13 The fear of the Lord is hatred of evil.
Pride and arrogance and the way of evil
    and perverted speech I hate.
