Proverbs 1:2

King James 3 - The Literal Traslation

To know wisdom and instruction; to discern the words of understanding;

See the chapter Copy

Say to wisdom, You are my sister, and call understanding your kinswoman,

Why is this, a price in the hand of a fool to obtain wisdom, and there is no heart for it?

Understand prudence, ones of simplicity; and fools, be of an understanding heart.

How much better to obtain wisdom than gold! And to obtain understanding is to be chosen above silver.

Sons, hear the instruction of a father, pay attention to know understanding.

The fear of Jehovah is instruction in wisdom, and before honor is humility.

Then you shall understand righteousness and judgment and uprightness; yea, every good path.

Hear instruction, and be wise, and do not let go.

Hear counsel and accept chastening, that you may be wise in your latter end.
