Wisdom 8:5

5 If riches be a possession to be desired in this life, what is richer than wisdom that worketh all things?

Wisdom 8:5 In-Context

3 In that she is conversant with God, she magnifieth her nobility; yea, the Lord of all things Himself loved her.
4 For she is privy to the mysteries of the knowledge of God, and a lover of His works.
5 If riches be a possession to be desired in this life, what is richer than wisdom that worketh all things?
6 And if prudence work, who of all that are is a more skillful workman than she?
7 And if a man love righteousness, her labors are virtues; for she teacheth temperance and prudence, justice and fortitude, which are such things as men can have nothing more profitable in their life.
