Wisdom of Solomon 6:17-20
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
17 The beginning of wisdom[a] is the most sincere desire for instruction,
18 and concern for instruction is love of her,
and love of her is the keeping of her laws,
and giving heed to her laws is assurance of immortality,(A)
19 and immortality brings one near to God,
20 so the desire for wisdom leads to a kingdom.(B)
