Foresight will protect you. Understanding will guard you.
Integrity and honesty will protect me because I wait for you.
to give insight to gullible people, to give knowledge and foresight to the young—
Do not abandon wisdom, and it will watch over you. Love wisdom, and it will protect you.
If an ax is blunt and the edge isn’t sharpened, then one has to use more strength. But wisdom prepares the way for success.
So then, be very careful how you live. Don’t live like foolish people but like wise people.
