and her profit better than xgold.
15She is more precious than yjewels,
and znothing you desire can compare with her.
16 aaLong life is in her right hand;
in her left hand are abriches and honor.
17Her acways are ways of pleasantness,
and all her paths are peace.
18She is ada tree of life to those who aelay hold of her;
those who hold her fast are called blessed.
