Proverbs 4:5-9 New International Version Anglicized (NIVUK)

5. Get wisdom, get understanding;do not forget my words or turn away from them.

6. Do not forsake wisdom, and she will protect you;love her, and she will watch over you.

7. The beginning of wisdom is this: get wisdom.Though it cost all you have, get understanding.

8. Cherish her, and she will exalt you;embrace her, and she will honour you.

9. She will give you a garland to grace your headand present you with a glorious crown.’
