For the Lord grants wisdom! From his mouth come knowledge and understanding. | For the Lord himself is the one who bestows wisdom; from his mouth come forth knowledge and understanding. |
He grants a treasure of common sense to the honest. He is a shield to those who walk with integrity. | He reserves his wisdom for the upright and is a shield to those who lead blameless lives. |
|
He guards the paths of the just and protects those who are faithful to him. | For he guards the paths of justice and keeps watch over the way of his faithful ones. |
Then you will understand what is right, just, and fair, and you will find the right way to go. | Then you will understand equity and justice as well as righteousness—every good path. |
