13. The fear of the Lord is to hate evil;I hate arrogant pride and the evil wayand perverse utterances.
14. Counsel and sound wisdom belong to me;I possess understanding and might.
15. Kings reign by means of me,and potentates decree righteousness;
16. by me princes rule,as well as nobles and all righteous judges.
17. I love those who love me,and those who seek me find me.
18. Riches and honor are with me,long-lasting wealth and righteousness.
19. My fruit is better than the purest gold,and what I produce is better than choice silver.
