Proverbs 8:12-18

New King James Version

¹² “I, wisdom, dwell with prudence,
And find out knowledge and discretion.
^13 (A)The fear of the Lord is to hate evil;
^(B)Pride and arrogance and the evil way
And ^(C)the perverse mouth I hate.
¹⁴ Counsel is mine, and sound wisdom;
I am understanding, ^(D)I have strength.
^15 (E)By me kings reign,
And rulers decree justice.
¹⁶ By me princes rule, and nobles,
All the judges of ^[a]the earth.
^17 (F)I love those who love me,
And ^(G)those who seek me diligently will find me.
^18 (H)Riches and honor are with me,
Enduring riches and righteousness.
