Likewise, know that wisdom is sweet to your soul; if you find it, you will have a future, and your hope will not be cut off.

For surely there is a future, and your hope will not be cut off.

Your words are sweeter in my mouth than honey!

For wisdom will enter your heart, and moral knowledge will be attractive to you.

They are of greater value than gold, than even a great amount of pure gold; they bring greater delight than honey, than even the sweetest honey from a honeycomb.

I claim your rules as my permanent possession, for they give me joy.

My child, if you receive my words, and store up my commands within you,

Blessed is the one who finds wisdom, and the one who obtains understanding.

For it is pleasing if you keep these sayings within you, and they are ready on your lips.

As your words came to me I drank them in, and they filled my heart with joy and happiness because I belong to you.

Jesus said to him, "If you wish to be perfect, go sell your possessions and give the money to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me."

But the one who peers into the perfect law of liberty and fixes his attention there, and does not become a forgetful listener but one who lives it out -- he will be blessed in what he does.
