New American Standard Bible (NASB)
Proverbs 8
6 "Listen, for I will speak noble things; And the opening of my lips will reveal right things.
7 "For my mouth will utter truth; And wickedness is an abomination to my lips.
8 "All the utterances of my mouth are in righteousness; There is nothing crooked or perverted in them.
9 "They are all straightforward to him who understands, And right to those who find knowledge.
10 "Take my instruction and not silver, And knowledge rather than choicest gold.
11 "For wisdom is better than jewels; And all desirable things cannot compare with her.
12 "I, wisdom, dwell with prudence, And I find knowledge and discretion.
13 "The fear of the Lord is to hate evil; Pride and arrogance and the evil way And the perverted mouth, I hate.
14 "Counsel is mine and sound wisdom; I am understanding, power is mine.
15 "By me kings reign, And rulers decree justice.
16 "By me princes rule, and nobles, All who judge rightly.
We pray that this ministry will be a blessing to you and your family.
