¹⁰³ How sweet are thy words unto my taste! yea, sweeter than honey to my mouth!

¹³ My son, eat thou honey, because it is good; and the honeycomb, which is sweet to thy taste:

¹⁴ So shall the knowledge of wisdom be unto thy soul: when thou hast found it, then there shall be a reward, and thy expectation shall not be cut off.

¹¹ For wisdom is better than rubies; and all the things that may be desired are not to be compared to it.

¹⁰ More to be desired are they than gold, yea, than much fine gold: sweeter also than honey and the honeycomb.

⁵ My soul shall be satisfied as with marrow and fatness; and my mouth shall praise thee with joyful lips:

¹² Neither have I gone back from the commandment of his lips; I have esteemed the words of his mouth more than my necessary food.

¹⁷ Her ways are ways of pleasantness, and all her paths are peace.
