• Proverbs 1:2-7
  To know wisdom and instruction,
  To perceive the words of understanding,
  To receive the instruction of wisdom,
  Justice, judgment, and equity;
  To give prudence to the simple,
  To the young man knowledge and discretion—
  A wise man will hear and increase learning,
  And a man of understanding will attain wise counsel,
  To understand a proverb and an enigma,
  The words of the wise and their riddles.
  The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge,
  But fools despise wisdom and instruction.

  Therefore get wisdom.
  And in all your getting, get understanding.

  And lift up your voice for understanding,
  If you seek her as silver,
  And search for her as for hidden treasures;
  Then you will understand the fear of the LORD,
  And find the knowledge of God.
  For the LORD gives wisdom;
  From His mouth come knowledge and understanding;
  He stores up sound wisdom for the upright;
  He is a shield to those who walk uprightly;
