Proverbs 8:14–17

I have counsel and sound wisdom;

I have insight; I have strength.

By me kings reign,

and rulers decree what is just;

by me princes rule,

and nobles, all who govern justly.

I love those who love me,

and those who seek me diligently find me.

Counsel and sound judgment are mine;

I have insight, I have power.

By me kings reign

and rulers issue decrees that are just;

by me princes govern,

and nobles—all who rule on earth.

I love those who love me,

and those who seek me find me.

I possess good advice and sound wisdom;

I have understanding and strength.

It is by me that kings reign

and rulers enact just law;

by me, princes lead,

as do nobles and all righteous judges.

I love those who love me,

and those who search for me find me.

Common sense and success belong to me.

Insight and strength are mine.

Because of me, kings reign,

and rulers make just decrees.

Rulers lead with my help,

and nobles make righteous judgments.

“I love all who love me.

Those who search will surely find me.

Advice and sound judgment are mine;

I am understanding, strength is mine.

By me kings reign,

and rulers decree righteousness.

By me rulers rule,

and nobles—all judges of righteousness.

I love those who love me,

and those who seek me diligently shall find me.

Counsel is mine, and sound wisdom:

I am understanding; I have strength.

By me kings reign,

And princes decree justice.

By me princes rule,

And nobles, even all the judges of the earth.

I love them that love me;

And those that seek me early shall find me.
