Proverbs 3:12–15

12 because the Lord disciplines those he loves,

as a father the son he delights in.

13 Blessed are those who find wisdom,

those who gain understanding,

14 for she is more profitable than silver

and yields better returns than gold.

15 She is more precious than rubies;

nothing you desire can compare with her.

12 for the Lord reproves him whom he loves,

as a father the son in whom he delights.

13 Blessed is the one who finds wisdom,

and the one who gets understanding,

14 for the gain from her is better than gain from silver

and her profit better than gold.

15 She is more precious than jewels,

and nothing you desire can compare with her.

12 For whom the Lord loveth he correcteth;

Even as a father the son in whom he delighteth.

13 Happy is the man that findeth wisdom,

And the man that getteth understanding.

14 For the merchandise of it is better than the merchandise of silver,

And the gain thereof than fine gold.

15 She is more precious than rubies:

And all the things thou canst desire are not to be compared unto her.

12 For whom the Lord loves He corrects,

Just as a father the son in whom he delights.

13 Happy is the man who finds wisdom,

And the man who gains understanding;

14 For her proceeds are better than the profits of silver,

And her gain than fine gold.

15 She is more precious than rubies,

And all the things you may desire cannot compare with her.

12 The Lord corrects those he loves,

just as parents correct the child they delight in.

13 Happy is the person who finds wisdom,

the one who gets understanding.

14 Wisdom is worth more than silver;

it brings more profit than gold.

15 Wisdom is more precious than rubies;

nothing you could want is equal to it.

12 For whom Jehovah loveth he reproveth;

Even as a father the son in whom he delighteth.

13 Happy is the man that findeth wisdom,

And the man that getteth understanding.

14 For the gaining of it is better than the gaining of silver,

And the profit thereof than fine gold.

15 She is more precious than rubies:

And none of the things thou canst desire are to be compared unto her.

12 for whom Jehovah loveth he chasteneth, even as a father the son in whom he delighteth.

13 Blessed is the man that findeth wisdom, and the man that getteth understanding. 14 For the gain thereof is better than the gain of silver, and her revenue than fine gold. 15 She is more precious than rubies; and all the things thou canst desire are not equal unto her.

12 because the Lord warns the one he loves, 

even as a father warns a son with whom he is pleased. 

13 Blessed is the one who finds wisdom 

and the one who obtains understanding. 

14 The profit ⸤gained⸥ from ⸤wisdom⸥ is greater than 

the profit ⸤gained⸥ from silver. 

Its yield is better than fine gold. 

15 ⸤Wisdom⸥ is more precious than jewels, 

and all your desires cannot equal it. 

12 for the Lord disciplines the one He loves,

just as a father, the son he delights in.

13 Happy is a man who finds wisdom

and who acquires understanding,

14 for she is more profitable than silver,

and her revenue is better than gold.

15 She is more precious than jewels;

nothing you desire compares with her.

12 for the Lord reproves the one he loves,

as a father the son in whom he delights.

13 Happy are those who find wisdom

and those who get understanding,

14 for her income is better than silver

and her revenue better than gold.

15 She is more precious than jewels,

and nothing you desire can compare with her.

12 because whomever Yahweh will love, he will rebuke,

as a father delights in his son.

13 Happy is the one who finds wisdom,

and one who obtains understanding.

14 For her income is better than the income of silver,

and her revenue than that of gold.

15 She is more precious than rubies,

and all your desires shall not compare with her.

12 The Lord trains those he loves.

He is like a father who trains the son he is pleased with.

13 Blessed is the one who finds wisdom.

Blessed is the one who gains understanding.

14 Wisdom pays better than silver does.

She earns more than gold does.

15 She is worth more than rubies.

Nothing you want can compare with her.

12 For whom the Lord loves He reproves,

Even as a father corrects the son in whom he delights.

13 How blessed is the man who finds wisdom

And the man who gains understanding.

14 For her profit is better than the profit of silver

And her gain better than fine gold.

15 She is more precious than jewels;

And nothing you desire compares with her.
