Proverbs 2:11

The English Standar Version

discretion will watch over you, understanding will guard you,

See the chapter Copy

Do not forsake her, and she will keep you; love her, and she will guard you.

Look carefully then how you walk, not as unwise but as wise,

May integrity and uprightness preserve me, for I wait for you.

If the iron is blunt, and one does not sharpen the edge, he must use more strength, but wisdom helps one to succeed.[2]

to give prudence to the simple, knowledge and discretion to the youth --
