Wis 7:12
King James Version
“And I rejoiced in them all, because wisdom goeth before them: and I knew not that she was the mother of them.”
Context
9Neither compared I unto her any precious stone, because all gold in respect of her is as a little sand, and silver shall be counted as clay before her.
10I loved her above health and beauty, and chose to have her instead of light: for the light that cometh from her never goeth out.
11All good things together came to me with her, and innumerable riches in her hands.
12And I rejoiced in them all, because wisdom goeth before them: and I knew not that she was the mother of them.
13I learned diligently, and do communicate her liberally: I do not hide her riches.
14For she is a treasure unto men that never faileth: which they that use become the friends of God, being commended for the gifts that come from learning.
15God hath granted me to speak as I would, and to conceive as is meet for the things that are given me: because it is he that leadeth unto wisdom, and directeth the wise.
