8 Does not ^(A)wisdom cry out,
And understanding lift up her voice?

¹⁰ Receive my instruction, and not silver,
And knowledge rather than choice gold;
^11 (A)For wisdom is better than rubies,
And all the things one may desire cannot be compared with her.

^17 (A)I love those who love me,
And ^(B)those who seek me diligently will find me.
^18 (C)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 ^[a]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.
