Proverbs 1:2

King James Version with Apocrypha - American Edition

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

See the chapter Copy

Say unto wisdom, Thou art my sister; and call understanding thy kinswoman:

Wherefore is there a price in the hand of a fool to get wisdom, seeing he hath no heart to it?

O ye simple, understand wisdom: and, ye fools, be ye of an understanding heart.

How much better is it to get wisdom than gold! and to get understanding rather to be chosen than silver!

Hear, ye children, the instruction of a father, and attend to know understanding.

The fear of the Lord is the instruction of wisdom; and before honor is humility.

Then shalt thou understand righteousness, and judgment, and equity; yea, every good path.

Hear instruction, and be wise, and refuse it not.

Hear counsel, and receive instruction, that thou mayest be wise in thy latter end.
