- To get wisdom is to love oneself;
to keep understanding is to prosper. - For in much wisdom is much vexation,
and those who increase knowledge increase sorrow. - The clever see danger and hide;
but the simple go on, and suffer for it. - Happy are those who find wisdom,
and those who get understanding. - Iron sharpens iron,
and one person sharpens the wits of another. - Who is wise and understanding among you? Show by your good life that your works are done with gentleness born of wisdom.
- Everyone then who hears these words of mine and acts on them will be like a wise man who built his house on rock.
- Even fools who keep silent are considered wise;
when they close their lips, they are deemed intelligent. - For by the grace given to me I say to everyone among you not to think of yourself more highly than you ought to think, but to think with sober judgment, each according to the measure of faith that God has assigned.
- Ever since the creation of the world his eternal power and divine nature, invisible though they are, have been understood and seen through the things he has made. So they are without excuse.

- A fool despises a parent's instruction,
but the one who heeds admonition is prudent. - And ‘to love him with all the heart, and with all the understanding, and with all the strength,’ and ‘to love one's neighbor as oneself,’—this is much more important than all whole burnt offerings and sacrifices.
Everyone who commits sin is guilty of lawlessness; sin is lawlessness. For I, the Lord your God,
hold your right hand;
it is I who say to you, “Do not fear,
I will help you.”Next verse!With image
