- I will lift up my eyes to the hills—
From whence comes my help?
My help comes from the Lord,
Who made heaven and earth. - Wisdom is the principal thing;
Therefore get wisdom.
And in all your getting, get understanding. - Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain 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. - So teach us to number our days,
That we may gain a heart of wisdom. - For if they fall, one will lift up his companion.
But woe to him who is alone when he falls,
For he has no one to help him up. - For I, the Lord your God, will hold your right hand,
Saying to you, ‘Fear not, I will help you.’ - When pride comes, then comes shame;
But with the humble is wisdom. - How much better to get wisdom than gold!
And to get understanding is to be chosen rather than silver. - Happy is the man who finds wisdom,
And the man who gains understanding. - For the Lord gives wisdom;
From His mouth come knowledge and understanding. - Get wisdom! Get understanding!
Do not forget, nor turn away from the words of my mouth. - He stores up sound wisdom for the upright;
He is a shield to those who walk uprightly. - I have taught you in the way of wisdom;
I have led you in right paths. - So shall the knowledge of wisdom be to your soul;
If you have found it, there is a prospect,
And your hope will not be cut off. - By pride comes nothing but strife,
But with the well-advised is wisdom. - If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him.
- For in much wisdom is much grief,
And he who increases knowledge increases sorrow. - He who gets wisdom loves his own soul;
He who keeps understanding will find good. - Help us, O God of our salvation,
For the glory of Your name;
And deliver us, and provide atonement for our sins,
For Your name’s sake! - The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge,
But fools despise wisdom and instruction. - Walk in wisdom toward those who are outside, redeeming the time. Let your speech always be with grace, seasoned with salt, that you may know how you ought to answer each one.
- The fear of the Lord is the instruction of wisdom,
And before honor is humility. - The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom,
And the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.
That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him.Bear one another’s burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ. Since you were precious in My sight,
You have been honored,
And I have loved you;
Therefore I will give men for you,
And people for your life.Next verse!With image
