With me is the fear of the LORD, and the eschewing of evil. As for pride, disdain, and evil way, and a mouth that speaketh wicked things, I utterly abhor them. I can give counsel, and be a guide: I have understanding, I have strength. Through me, kings reign: through me, princes make just laws. Through me, lords bear rule, and all judges of the earth execute judgment. I am loving unto those that love me, and they that seek me early, shall find me. Riches and honour are with me; yea, excellent goods and righteousness. My fruit is better than gold, and precious stones, and mine increase more worth than fine silver.
