¹ Hear therefore, you kings, and understand. Learn, you judges of the ends of the earth. (English source shown until the Spanish translation is ready)

² Give ear, you rulers who have dominion over many people, and make your boast in multitudes of nations, (English source shown until the Spanish translation is ready)

³ because your dominion was given to you from the Lord, and your sovereignty from the Most High. He will search out your works, and will inquire about your plans, (English source shown until the Spanish translation is ready)

⁴ because being officers of his kingdom, you didn’t judge rightly, nor did you keep the law, nor did you walk according to God’s counsel. (English source shown until the Spanish translation is ready)

⁵ He will come upon you awfully and swiftly, because a stern judgment comes on those who are in high places. (English source shown until the Spanish translation is ready)

⁶ For the man of low estate may be pardoned in mercy, but mighty men will be mightily tested. (English source shown until the Spanish translation is ready)

⁷ For the Sovereign Lord of all will not be impressed with anyone, neither will he show deference to greatness; because it is he who made both small and great, and cares about them all; (English source shown until the Spanish translation is ready)

⁸ but the scrutiny that comes upon the powerful is strict. (English source shown until the Spanish translation is ready)

⁹ Therefore, my words are to you, O princes, that you may learn wisdom and not fall away. (English source shown until the Spanish translation is ready)

¹⁰ For those who have kept the things that are holy in holiness will be made holy. Those who have been taught them will find what to say in defense. (English source shown until the Spanish translation is ready)

¹¹ Therefore set your desire on my words. Long for them, and you princes will be instructed. (English source shown until the Spanish translation is ready)

¹² Wisdom is radiant and doesn’t fade away; and is easily seen by those who love her, and found by those who seek her. (English source shown until the Spanish translation is ready)

¹³ She anticipates those who desire her, making herself known. (English source shown until the Spanish translation is ready)

¹⁴ He who rises up early to seek her won’t have difficulty, for he will find her sitting at his gates. (English source shown until the Spanish translation is ready)

¹⁵ For to think upon her is perfection of understanding, and he who watches for her will quickly be free from care; (English source shown until the Spanish translation is ready)

¹⁶ because she herself goes around, seeking those who are worthy of her, and in their paths she appears to them graciously, and in every purpose she meets them. (English source shown until the Spanish translation is ready)

¹⁷ For her true beginning is desire for instruction; and desire for instruction is love. (English source shown until the Spanish translation is ready)

¹⁸ And love is observance of her laws. To give heed to her laws confirms immortality. (English source shown until the Spanish translation is ready)

¹⁹ Immortality brings closeness to God. (English source shown until the Spanish translation is ready)

²⁰ So then desire for wisdom promotes to a kingdom. (English source shown until the Spanish translation is ready)

²¹ If therefore you delight in thrones and sceptres, you princes of peoples, honor wisdom, that you may reign forever. (English source shown until the Spanish translation is ready)

²² But what wisdom is, and how she came into being, I will declare. I won’t hide mysteries from you; but I will explore from her first beginning, bring the knowledge of her into clear light, and I will not pass by the truth. (English source shown until the Spanish translation is ready)

²³ Indeed, I won’t travel with consuming envy, because envy will have no fellowship with wisdom. (English source shown until the Spanish translation is ready)

²⁴ But a multitude of wise men is salvation to the world, and an understanding king is stability for his people. (English source shown until the Spanish translation is ready)

²⁵ Therefore be instructed by my words, and you will profit. (English source shown until the Spanish translation is ready)
