Proverbs 8:19
My fruit is better than gold, yea, than fine gold; And my revenue than choice silver.
In context
16 By me princes rule, And nobles, even all the judges of the earth. 17 I love them that love me; And those that seek me early shall find me. 18 Riches and honour are with me; Yea, durable riches and righteousness. 19 My fruit is better than gold, yea, than fine gold; And my revenue than choice silver. 20 I lead in the way of righteousness, In the midst of the paths of judgment: 21 That I may cause those that love me to inherit substance; And I will fill their treasures.
22 The LORD possessed me in the beginning of his way, Before his works of old.
