Wisdom 8:5-7

Revised Standard Version

⁵ If riches are a desirable possession in life,
what is richer than wisdom who effects all things?
⁶ And if understanding is effective,
who more than she is fashioner of what exists?
⁷ And if any one loves righteousness,
her labors are virtues;
for she teaches self-control and prudence,
justice and courage;
nothing in life is more profitable for men than these.
