Wisdom 7:10

10 I loved her above health and beauty, and chose to have her instead of light; for the light that cometh from her never goeth out.

Wisdom 7:10 In-Context

8 I preferred her before scepters and thrones, and esteemed riches as nothing in comparison to her;

9 neither compared I unto her any precious stone, because all gold with respect to her is as a little sand, and silver shall be counted as clay before her.

10 I loved her above health and beauty, and chose to have her instead of light; for the light that cometh from her never goeth out.

11 All good things together came to me with her, and innumerable riches in her hands.

12 And I rejoiced in them all, because wisdom goeth before them; and I knew not that she was the mother of them.
