Length of days is in her right hand; and in her left hand riches and honour.
Wisdom gives its possessor long life, riches, and honor. Length of days is held in her right hand, while riches and honor are held in her left hand. These blessings belong to her worth and come with ways that are pleasant and paths that are peaceful. She is more valuable than silver and gold and rubies and anything else a person could desire.
Wisdom with its gifts of long life, riches, and honor is part of the heavenly treasure to be sought. As that heavenly treasure she is beyond comparison and cannot be bought with earthly wealth. The wisdom described is found by trusting God rather than relying on one's own understanding. It is the wisdom that Christ gives.
