The Exhortation Of Wisdom

[32] Now therefore hearken unto me, O ye children: for blessed are they that keep my ways. [33] Hear instruction, and be wise, and refuse it not. [34] Blessed is the man that heareth me, watching daily at my gates, waiting at the posts of my doors. [35] For whoso findeth me findeth life, and shall obtain favour of the LORD. [36] But he that sinneth against me wrongeth his own soul: all they that hate me love death.

I have taught thee in the way of wisdom; I have led thee in right paths.

Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding.

The LORD by wisdom hath founded the earth; by understanding hath he established the heavens.

Get wisdom, get understanding: forget it not; neither decline from the words of my mouth.

For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.

Whom we preach, warning every man, and teaching every man in all wisdom; that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus:

Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience.

My son, forget not my law; but let thine heart keep my commandments:

Now therefore hearken unto me, O ye children: for blessed are they that keep my ways.
