Wisdom 6:19

19 immortality will bring you close to God.

Wisdom 6:19 In-Context

17 Wisdom begins when you sincerely want to learn. To desire Wisdom is to love her;
18 to love her is to keep her laws; to keep her laws is to be certain of immortality;
19 immortality will bring you close to God.
20 This desire for Wisdom can prepare you to rule a kingdom.
21 So then, you that rule the nations, if you value your thrones and symbols of authority, honor Wisdom so that you may rule forever.
