Wisdom 10:9

Listen to Wisdom 10:9

Wisdom 10:9 In-Context

7 You can still see the evidence of their wickedness. The land there is barren and smoking. The plants bear fruit that never ripens, and a pillar of salt stands as a monument to one who did not believe.
8 The people of those cities ignored Wisdom and could not tell right from wrong. Not only that, but the remains of their cities still remind us of the foolish way they lived, so that their failure can never be forgotten.
9 But Wisdom rescued her servants from the danger.
10 A righteous man once had to escape from his brother's anger, and Wisdom guided him in the right way. She showed him God's kingdom and allowed him to know about holy things. She made him prosperous and successful in his work.
11 When others were greedy for what he had, and wanted to take it away from him, Wisdom stood by him and made him rich.
