And rulers mark out righteousness.
16 By me princes rule, and nobles,
All who judge rightly.
17 I (K)love those who love me;
And (L)those who earnestly seek me will find me.
18 (M)Riches and glory are with me,
Enduring (N)wealth and righteousness.
19 My fruit is (O)better than fine gold, even pure gold,
And my produce better than (P)choice silver.
20 I walk in the path of righteousness,
In the midst of the pathways of justice,
21 To give those who love me an inheritance of wealth,
That I may (Q)fill their treasuries.
