¹⁰ They are more desirable than ^(A)gold, even more than much fine gold;
^(B)Sweeter also than honey and the drippings of the honeycomb.

²⁶ Evil thoughts are an abomination to Yahweh,
But pleasant words are pure.

¹³ Eat ^(A)honey, my son, for it is good,
Indeed, the ^(B)honey from the comb is sweet to your taste;
¹⁴ Know that ^(C)wisdom is thus for your soul;
If you find it, then there will be a ^[a](D)future,
And your hope will not be cut off.
