Proverbs 8:13-17

View Full Chapter

13To fear the LORD is to hate evil; I hate pride and arrogance, evil behavior and perverse speech.

14Counsel and sound judgment are mine; I have insight, I have power.

15By me kings reign and rulers issue decrees that are just;

16by me princes govern, and nobles—all who rule on earth. Some Hebrew manuscripts and Septuagint; other Hebrew manuscripts all righteous rulers

17I love those who love me, and those who seek me find me.
