5 Get wisdom, get understanding;af

don’t forget or turn away from the words from my mouth.

6 Don’t abandon wisdom, and she will watch over you;

love her,ag and she will guard you.

7 Wisdom is supreme—so get wisdom.

And whatever else you get, get understanding.ah

8 Cherish her, and she will exalt you;

if you embrace her, she will honor you.a
