Wisdom 6:9-11

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

⁹ To you then, O monarchs, my words are directed,
that you may learn wisdom and not transgress.
¹⁰ For they will be made holy who observe holy things in holiness,
and those who have been taught them will find a defense.
¹¹ Therefore set your desire on my words;
long for them, and you will be instructed.
