Wisdom 7:7 In-Context

5 For there is no king that had any other beginning of birth;

6 for all men have one entrance into life, and the like going out.

7 Therefore I prayed, and understanding was given me; I called upon God, and the spirit of wisdom came to me.

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.
