Wisdom 10:8-10
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
8 For those who forsook Wisdom
not only were deprived of knowledge of the good,
But also left the world a memorial of their folly,
so that they could not even be hidden in their fall.
9 But Wisdom rescued from tribulations those who served her.(A)
10 She, when a righteous man[a] fled from his brother’s anger,(B)
guided him in right ways,
Showed him the kingdom of God
and gave him knowledge of holy things;
She prospered him in his labors
and made abundant the fruit of his works,
