Ecclesiastes 7:11-13

New Catholic Bible

¹¹Wisdom is as good as an inheritance
    and an advantage to those who see the sun.
¹²Safeguard wisdom as you would a legacy,
    and the advantage of knowledge is this:
    it bestows life on the one who possesses it.

¹³Consider the work of God.

Who can make straight
what God has made crooked?
