Wisdom of Solomon 6:13
King James VersionSource notes
“She preventeth them that desire her, in making herself first known unto them.”
Context
10For they that keep holiness holily shall be judged holy: and they that have learned such things shall find what to answer.
11Wherefore set your affection upon my words; desire them, and ye shall be instructed.
12Wisdom is glorious, and never fadeth away: yea, she is easily seen of them that love her, and found of such as seek her.
13She preventeth them that desire her, in making herself first known unto them.
14Whoso seeketh her early shall have no great travail: for he shall find her sitting at his doors.
15To think therefore upon her is perfection of wisdom: and whoso watcheth for her shall quickly be without care.
16For she goeth about seeking such as are worthy of her, sheweth herself favourably unto them in the ways, and meeteth them in every thought.
