⁹ Honour the Lord with your substance
   and with the first fruits of all your produce;
¹⁰ then your barns will be filled with plenty,
   and your vats will be bursting with wine.

¹¹ My child, do not despise the Lord’s discipline
   or be weary of his reproof,
¹² for the Lord reproves the one he loves,
   as a father the son in whom he delights.

The True Wealth

¹³ Happy are those who find wisdom,
   and those who get understanding,
¹⁴ for her income is better than silver,
   and her revenue better than gold.
¹⁵ She is more precious than jewels,
   and nothing you desire can compare with her.
¹⁶ Long life is in her right hand;
   in her left hand are riches and honour.
¹⁷ Her ways are ways of pleasantness,
   and all her paths are peace.
