我之結果、愈於兼金、我之土產、愈於白銀。

宜承我教、明哲是求、過於羨慕金銀也。斯智也、貴於琅玕、凡爾所欲、不得與之比儗。

貴於琅玕、凡所慕者、無能比儗。得智慧者、福祉遐齡、左宜右有、從其道者、享懽樂、得平康。凡得之者、如得生命之樹、存之者、可蒙福祉。

智可庇身、財可助己、惟獲智慧、可享永生。

利盡天下、而失生命者、何益之有、人將以何者易生命乎、

其價不可勝量、雖歷天下而無所得。索之深淵、深淵無有、求之滄海、滄海難遘。斯智也、金不得鬻、銀不能購。阿妃之金、碧玉青玉、無能相埒。琉璃精金、不能相易。珊瑚水晶、俱不足以介意、蓋智慧之價、過於琅玕。雖古實之淡黃玉、諸兼金不能沽也。智慧從何至、聰明在何方、生民未之睹、飛鳥未之見、陰司暗府、惟聞其名、上帝自知之、自識之。遍觀地極、鑒察天涯。權衡四風、量度諸水、為雨露立其法、為雷電定其程。上帝言之早、察之預、因以曉人曰、寅畏上帝、即智慧、革去諸惡、即聰明。

凡積財於己、而上帝前不富有者、亦如是、○

我愛爾誡命、貴於兼金兮、

眾物雖可欲、惟道尤為急務。
