And the (F)perverted mouth, I hate.

I am understanding, (I)power is mine.
15 By me (J)kings reign,
And rulers decree justice.
16 By me princes rule, and nobles,
All who judge rightly.
17 I (K)love those who love me;
And (L)those who diligently seek me will find me.
18 (M)Riches and honor are with me,
Enduring (N)wealth and righteousness.
19 My fruit is (O)better than gold, even pure gold;
And my yield better than (P)choice silver.
20 I walk in the way of righteousness,
In the midst of the paths of justice,
21 To endow those who love me with wealth,
That I may (Q)fill their treasuries.
