My breath was the spicy smell of cinnamon, of sweet perfume and finest myrrh, of stacte, onycha, and galbanum, the fragrant incense in the Sacred Tent.
16
Like an oak I spread out my branches, magnificent and graceful.
17
Like a grapevine I put out lovely shoots; my blossoms gave way to rich and glorious fruit.
19
Come to me, all you that want me, and eat your fill of my fruit.
20
You will remember me as sweeter than honey, better than honey from the comb.
21
Eat me, and you will hunger for more; drink me, and you will thirst for more.
22
Obey me, and you will never have cause for embarrassment; do as I say, and you will be safe from sin."

Wisdom is the Law, the Law which Moses commanded us to keep, the covenant of God Most High, the inheritance of the synagogues of Israel.
25
The Law overflows with Wisdom like the Pishon River, like the Tigris at fruit-picking time.
