I saw

Wisdom is good with an inheritance; but it is gain to those who see the sun.

And I said, Wisdom is better than strength; but the poor man's wisdom is despised, and his words are not heard.

Get wisdom, get understanding; forget not; nor turn away from the words of my mouth.

How much better it is to get wisdom than gold! And to get understanding is rather to be chosen than silver!

Then you shall again see the difference between the righteous and the wicked, between him who serves God, and him who does not serve Him.

For behold, the day is coming, burning like a fire pot; and all the proud, and every doer of wickedness, shall be chaff. And the coming day will set them ablaze, says Jehovah of Hosts, which will not leave root or branches to them.

Light

Also the light is sweet, and a pleasant thing it is for the eyes to behold the sun;

NUN: Your Word is a lamp to my feet, and a light to my path.

But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shines more and more to the perfect day.

But if your eye is evil, your whole body shall be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in you is darkness, how great is that darkness!

The light of the body is the eye. Therefore when your eye is sound, your whole body also is full of light. But when your eye is evil, your body also is full of darkness.

For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord; walk as children of light
