Proverbs Commentary

She is more precious than rubies: and all the things thou canst desire are not to be compared unto her.

For the merchandise of it is better than the merchandise of silver, and the gain thereof than fine gold.

Happy is the man that findeth wisdom, and the man that getteth understanding.

Whose ways are crooked, and they froward in their paths:

Who rejoice to do evil, and delight in the frowardness of the wicked;

Who leave the paths of uprightness, to walk in the ways of darkness;

My son, walk not thou in the way with them; refrain thy foot from their path:

Cast in thy lot among us; let us all have one purse:

We shall find all precious substance, we shall fill our houses with spoil:

She will do him good and not evil all the days of her life.
