And in all your getting, get understanding… She will bring you honor when you embrace her. When you walk, your steps will not be hindered, and when you run, you will not stumble. Take firm hold of instruction, do not let go; Keep her, for she is your life. Do not enter the path of the wicked, anddo not walk in the way of evil.
