Proverbs 8:13-26 (TLB)
13 If anyone respects and fears God, he will hate evil. For wisdom hates pride, arrogance, corruption, and deceit of every kind.

14-16 “I,
Wisdom, give good advice and common sense. Because of my strength, kings
reign in power, and rulers make just laws. 17 I love all who love me.
Those who search for me shall surely find me. 18 Unending riches, honor,
justice, and righteousness are mine to distribute. 19 My gifts are
better than the purest gold or sterling silver! 20 My paths are those of
justice and right. 21 Those who love and follow me are indeed wealthy. I
fill their treasuries. 22 The Lord formed me in the beginning, before
he created anything else.[a] 23 From ages past, I am. I existed before
the earth began. 24 I lived before the oceans were created, before the
springs bubbled forth their waters onto the earth, 25 before the
mountains and the hills were made. 26 Yes, I was born before God made
the earth and fields and the first handfuls of soil.
