In context
14For it is better to traffic for her, Than for treasures of gold and silver.
15And she is more valuable than precious stones: No evil thing shall resist her: She is well known to all that approach her, And no precious thing is equal to her in value.
— Proverbs 3:16 —
17Her ways are good ways, And all her paths are peaceful.
18She is a tree of life to all that lay hold upon her; And she is a secure help to all that stay themselves on her, as on the Lord.
