H3887A scorner[H8801] H1245seeketh[H8765] H2451wisdomH1847, and findeth it not: but knowledgeH7043is easy[H8738] H995unto him that understandeth[H8737] .
G1161 G1536If anyG5216of youG3007lack[G5743] G4678wisdomG154, let him ask[G5720] G3844ofG2316GodG1325, that giveth[G5723] G3956to allG574men liberallyG2532, andG3679upbraideth[G5723] G3361notG2532; andG1325it shall be given[G5701] G846him.
G1161AndG1536if any manG1380think[G5719] G1492that he knoweth[G5760] G5100any thingG1097, he knoweth[G5758] G3762nothingG3764yetG2531asG1163he ought[G5748] G1097to know[G5629] .
H5228They are all plainH995to him that understandeth[H8688] H3477, and rightH4672to them that find[H8802] H1847knowledge.
H2450The wiseH3001men are ashamed[H8689] H2865, they are dismayed[H8804] H3920and taken[H8735] H3988: lo, they have rejected[H8804] H1697the wordH3068of the LORDH2451; and what wisdom is in them?
H8451To the lawH8584and to the testimonyH559: if they speak[H8799] H1697not according to this wordH7837, it is because there is no light in them.
H7200Seest[H8804] H376thou a manH2450wiseH5869in his own conceitH8615? there is more hopeH3684of a fool than of him.
H3684A foolH2654hath no delight[H8799] H8394in understandingH3820, but that his heartH1540may discover[H8692] itself.
H2451WisdomH6440is before him that hath understandingH995 [H8688] H5869; but the eyesH3684of a foolH7097are in the endsH776of the earth.
H1540Open[H8761] H5869thou mine eyesH5027, that I may behold[H8686] H6381wondrous things[H8737] H8451out of thy law.
H2450A wiseH8085man will hear[H8799] H3254, and will increase[H8686] H3948learningH995; and a man of understanding[H8737] H7069shall attain[H8799] H8458unto wise counsels:
H529A faithfulH5707witnessH3577will not lieH8267: but a falseH5707witnessH6315will utter[H8686] H3576lies[H8762] .
H3212Go[H8798] H5048from the presenceH3684of a foolishH376manH3045, when thou perceivest[H8804] H8193not in him the lipsH1847of knowledge.
H2454WisdomH7311is too high[H8802] H191for a foolH6605: he openeth[H8799] H6310not his mouthH8179in the gate.
H561All the wordsH6310of my mouthH6664are in righteousnessH6617; there is nothing froward[H8737] H6141or perverse in them.
H3887A scorner[H8801] H157loveth[H8799] H3198not one that reproveth[H8687] H3212him: neither will he go[H8799] H2450unto the wise.
H4242Wherefore is there a priceH3027in the handH3684of a foolH7069to get[H8800] H2451wisdomH3820, seeing he hath no heart to it ?
