  • Proverbs 9:10
    " The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom,
    And the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.

     
  • Psalm 111:10

  • Proverbs 15:33

    And before honor is humility.
     
  • Job 28:20-28
    “From where then does wisdom come?
    And where is the place of understanding? It is hidden from the eyes of all living,
    And concealed from the birds of the air. Destruction and Death say,
    ‘We have heard a report about it with our ears.’ God understands its way,
    And He knows its place. For He looks to the ends of the earth,
    And sees under the whole heavens, To establish a weight for the wind,
    And apportion the waters by measure. When He made a law for the rain,
    And a path for the thunderbolt, Then He saw wisdom and declared it;
    He prepared it, indeed, He searched it out. And to man He said,
    " Behold, the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom,
    And to depart from evil is understanding.""
     
  • Proverbs 1:25-30
    Because you disdained all my counsel,
    And would have none of my rebuke,
    I also will laugh at your calamity;
    I will mock when your terror comes,
    When your terror comes like a storm,
    And your destruction comes like a whirlwind,
    When distress and anguish come upon you.
    " Then they will call on me, but I will not answer;
    They will seek me diligently, but they will not find me.
    Because they hated knowledge
    And did not choose the fear of the LORD,
    They would have none of my counsel
    And despised my every rebuke.

     
  • Proverbs 14:26-27
    In the fear of the LORD there is strong confidence,
    And His children will have a place of refuge.
    The fear of the LORD is a fountain of life,
    To turn one away from the snares of death.

     
  • Ecclesiastes 12:13
    Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter:
    Fear God and keep His commandments,
    For this is man's all.
