To know wisdom and instruction; To perceive the words of understanding;
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 honour 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.
