16. Length of days is in her right hand, Riches and esteem in her left hand.
17. Her ways are pleasant ways, And all her paths are peace.
18. She is a tree of life to those taking hold of her, And blessed are all who retain her.
19. יהוה founded the earth by wisdom; He established the heavens by understanding;
20. By His knowledge the depths were broken up, And clouds drop down dew.
21. My son, let them not depart from your eyes; Watch over sound wisdom and discretion;
22. Then they become life to your being And an adorning to your neck.
23. Then you would walk safely in your way, And your foot would not stumble.
