22
For wisdom is like her name; she is not readily perceived by many.
23
Listen, my child, and accept my judgment; do not reject my counsel.
24
Put your feet into her fetters, and your neck into her collar.
25
Bend your shoulders and carry her, and do not fret under her bonds.
26
Come to her with all your soul, and keep her ways with all your might.
