Cry out for wisdom, and beg for understanding.
But if any of you needs wisdom, you should ask God for it. He is generous to everyone and will give you wisdom without criticizing you.
Remember the Lord in all you do, and he will give you success.
Hear my cry to you, Lord. Let your word help me understand.
I am your servant. Give me wisdom so I can understand your rules.
Even though you are bad, you know how to give good things to your children. How much more your heavenly Father will give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him!”
You made me and formed me with your hands. Give me understanding so I can learn your commands.
Help me understand, so I can keep your teachings, obeying them with all my heart.
He will make you the king of Israel. May the Lord give you wisdom and understanding so you will be able to obey the teachings of the Lord your God.
I love those who love me, and those who seek me find me.
Listen carefully to wisdom; set your mind on understanding.
Search for it like silver, and hunt for it like hidden treasure.
My children, listen to your father’s teaching; pay attention so you will understand.
