Proverbs 4:8

4:8 Esteem her highly and she will exalt you;

she will honor you if you embrace her.

Ecclesiastes 10:6

10:6 Fools are placed in many positions of authority,

while wealthy men sit in lowly positions.


tn The verb is the Pilpel imperative from סָלַל (salal, “to lift up; to cast up”). So the imperative means “exalt her; esteem her highly; prize her.”

tn Heb “folly.”
