Wisdom 8:5

5 If wealth is a possession to be desired with all one's heart, what could be wealthier than Wisdom, who has given form to everything?

Wisdom 8:5 In-Context

3 She honors her dignified birth by sharing her life with God. The master of all loves her.
4 She knows God's secret ways and is a partner in God's works.
5 If wealth is a possession to be desired with all one's heart, what could be wealthier than Wisdom, who has given form to everything?
6 If thoughtful planning accomplishes things, who could possibly be wiser than she who designed everything that is?
7 If anyone loves to do what is right, laboring with Wisdom will produce every virtue. She trains persons to learn moderation and practical wisdom. She teaches them what is right and how to exercise courage. Nothing is more advantageous than these when it comes to human existence.
