³⁵ Wisdom is justified by all her children."

³² "Now therefore, my sons, listen to me, For blessed are those who keep my ways.

³³ Hear instruction, and be wise. Don't refuse it.

³⁴ Blessed is the man who hears me, Watching daily at my gates, Waiting at my door posts.

³⁵ For whoever finds me, finds life, And will obtain favor from Yahweh.

³⁶ But he who sins against me wrongs his own soul. All those who hate me love death."

¹⁶ Why is there money in the hand of a fool to buy wisdom, Seeing he has no understanding?

¹⁹ The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and they say, 'Behold, a gluttonous man and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!' But wisdom is justified by her children."

²⁹ When all the people and the tax collectors heard this, they declared God to be just, having been baptized with John's baptism.

⁹ Who is wise, that he may understand these things? Who is prudent, that he may know them? For the ways of Yahweh are right, And the righteous walk in them; But the rebellious stumble in them.

¹⁴ Now the natural man doesn't receive the things of God's Spirit, for they are foolishness to him, and he can't know them, because they are spiritually discerned.

¹⁵ But he who is spiritual discerns all things, and he himself is judged by no one.
