- 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. - God is our refuge and strength,
a very present help in trouble. - 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.
- 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. - Happy are those who find wisdom,
and those who get understanding. - How much better to get wisdom than gold!
To get understanding is to be chosen rather than silver. - 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. - I have taught you the way of wisdom;
I have led you in the paths of uprightness. - If any of you is lacking in wisdom, ask God, who gives to all generously and ungrudgingly, and it will be given you.
- Help us, O God of our salvation,
for the glory of your name;
deliver us, and forgive our sins,
for your name's sake. - 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. - 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. - 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.
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.Honor your father and your mother, so that your days may be long in the land that the Lord your God is giving you. But who am I, and what is my people, that we should be able to make this freewill offering? For all things come from you, and of your own have we given you.Next verse!With image
