Description of Wisdom
12Wisdom is radiant and unfading,
and she is easily discerned by those who love her
and is found by those who seek her.*
13She hastens to make herself known to those who desire her.*
14One who rises early to seek her will have no difficulty,
for she will be found sitting at the gate.*
15To fix one’s thought on her is perfect understanding,
and one who is vigilant on her account will soon be free from care,*
16because she goes about seeking those worthy of her,
and she graciously appears to them in their paths
and meets them in every thought.
