Proverbs 8:12-14
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
12 I, Wisdom, dwell with prudence,
and useful knowledge I have.
13 [The fear of the Lord is hatred of evil;]
Pride, arrogance, the evil way,
and the perverse mouth I hate.(A)
14 Mine are counsel and advice;
Mine is strength; I am understanding.[a]
