- I lift up my eyes to the hills—
from where will my help come?
My help comes from the Lord,
who made heaven and earth. - The beginning of wisdom is this: Get wisdom,
and whatever else you get, get insight. - Let us therefore approach the throne of grace with boldness, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.
- God is our refuge and strength,
a very present help in trouble. - Our help is in the name of the Lord,
who made heaven and earth. - For if they fall, one will lift up the other; but woe to one who is alone and falls and does not have another to help.
- For I, the Lord your God,
hold your right hand;
it is I who say to you, “Do not fear,
I will help you.” - To get wisdom is to love oneself;
to keep understanding is to prosper. - When pride comes, then comes disgrace;
but wisdom is with the humble. - How much better to get wisdom than gold!
To get understanding is to be chosen rather than silver. - Happy are those who find wisdom,
and those who get understanding. - For the Lord gives wisdom;
from his mouth come knowledge and understanding. - Get wisdom; get insight: do not forget, nor turn away
from the words of my mouth. - Know that wisdom is such to your soul;
if you find it, you will find a future,
and your hope will not be cut off. - He stores up sound wisdom for the upright;
he is a shield to those who walk blamelessly. - If any of you is lacking in wisdom, ask God, who gives to all generously and ungrudgingly, and it will be given you.
- I have taught you the way of wisdom;
I have led you in the paths of uprightness. - By insolence the heedless make strife,
but wisdom is with those who take advice. - For in much wisdom is much vexation,
and those who increase knowledge increase sorrow. - Help us, O God of our salvation,
for the glory of your name;
deliver us, and forgive our sins,
for your name's sake. - The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge;
fools despise wisdom and instruction. - The fear of the Lord is instruction in wisdom,
and humility goes before honor. - The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom,
and the knowledge of the Holy One is insight. - So teach us to count our days
that we may gain a wise heart. - I pray that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give you a spirit of wisdom and revelation as you come to know him.
In my distress I called upon the Lord;
to my God I cried for help.
From his temple he heard my voice,
and my cry to him reached his ears.Be exalted, O God, above the heavens.
Let your glory be over all the earth.
