8
Well is him that dwelleth with a wife of understanding, and that hath not slipped with his tongue, and that hath not served a man more unworthy than himself:
9
Well is him that hath found prudence, and he that speaketh in the ears of them that will hear:
10
O how great is he that findeth wisdom! yet is there none above him that feareth the Lord.
11
But the love of the Lord passeth all things for illumination: he that holdeth it, whereto shall he be likened?
12
The fear of the Lord is the beginning of his love: and faith is the beginning of cleaving unto him.
