Get wisdom; get understanding; do not forget or turn away from the words of my mouth.
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.
And he did what was correct in the eyes of the Lord, and he walked in the ways of David his father and did not turn either to the right or left.
He who gets wisdom loves his own soul; he who keeps understanding will find good.
Why is money in the hand of a fool to buy wisdom since he has no heart for it?
O you simple ones, understand prudence; and you fools, be of an understanding heart.
Our heart has not turned back, nor have our steps departed from Your way;
Buy truth, and sell it not; also wisdom and instruction and understanding.
A man who separates himself seeks his own desire; he defies all sound judgment.
How much better it is to get wisdom than gold! And to get understanding than silver!
Many are my persecutors and my enemies, yet I do not turn from Your testimonies.
The proud have me in utter derision, yet I do not forsake Your law.
My foot has held fast to His steps; I have kept His way and have not turned aside.
My son, do not forget my teaching, but let your heart keep my commandments,
The beginning of wisdom is this: get wisdom, and with all your possessions, get understanding.
