Wisdom 8:7 In-Context

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.
8 If someone wants to gain experience, she's the one to teach it: She knows what has been from the beginning and sees what is yet to come. She can figure out puzzles of language and resolve riddles. She knows beforehand what signs and wonders point to. She knows what will happen in time and during the seasons of the year.
9 For these reasons, I decided to bring her to live with me. I knew that she would be a good counselor. I knew that she would be able to offer me advice when there were concerns or suffering.
