Proverbs 2:11

English Standard Version 2016

discretion will watch over you, understanding will guard you,

See the chapter Copy

Do not forsake her, and she will keep you; love her, and she will guard you.

Look carefully then how you walk, not as unwise but as wise,

May integrity and uprightness preserve me, for I wait for you.

If the iron is blunt, and one does not sharpen the edge, he must use more strength, but wisdom helps one to succeed.

to give prudence to the simple, knowledge and discretion to the youth—
