SCRIPTURE
Proverbs 3:I3-c3.

Happy is the man that findeth wis
dom and the man that getteth under
standing
For the merchandise OF # is better
than the merchandise of silver. and
the gain thereof than fine gold
She is more precious than rubies-
and all the things thou canst desire are
not to be compared unto her
Length Of days is in her right hand;
and in her left hand riches and honour.
Her ways are ways Of pleasantness,
and all her paths are peace.
She is a tree OF life to them that
lay hold upon her. and happy is every
one that retaineth her.
The Lord by wisdom hath founded
the earth: by understanding hath he
established the heavens.
BY his knowledge the depths are
broken up, and the clouds drop down
the dew.
Ny son. let not them depart from
thine eyes; keep sound wisdom and
discretion.
So shall they be life unto thy soul.
and grace 10 thy neck
Then shalt thou walk in thy way
safely. and thy foot shall not stumble.
