18 Elle est un arbre de vie pour ceux qui la saisissent, Et ceux qui la possèdent sont heureux.

19 C’est par la sagesse que l’Éternel a fondé la terre, C’est par l’intelligence qu’il a affermi les cieux;

20 C’est par sa science que les abîmes se sont ouverts, Et que les nuages distillent la rosée.

21 Mon fils, que ces enseignements ne s’éloignent pas de tes yeux, Garde la sagesse et la réflexion:

22 Elles seront la vie de ton âme, Et l’ornement de ton cou.
