“From where then does wisdom come? And where is the place of understanding?
“But where will wisdom be found? And where is the place of understanding?
It is hidden from the eyes of all living and concealed from the birds of the air.
God understands its way, and He knows its place.
To man He said: ‘Behold, the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom; and to depart from evil is understanding.’ ”
For the Lord gives wisdom; from His mouth come knowledge and understanding;
Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above and comes down from the Father of lights, with whom is no change or shadow of turning.
If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all men liberally and without criticism, and it will be given to him.
