The Lord created the earth by his wisdom;
by his knowledge he set the sky in place.

His wisdom caused the rivers to flow
and the clouds to give rain to the earth.

Wise people will gain an honorable reputation,
but stupid people will only add to their own disgrace.

Proverbs 3:35

Get wisdom and insight!
Do not forget or ignore what I say.

Do not abandon wisdom, and she will protect you;
love her, and she will keep you safe.

Getting wisdom is the most important thing you can do.
Whatever else you get, get insight.

Love wisdom, and she will make you great.
Embrace her, and she will bring you honor.
She will be your crowning glory.”

Nothing will stand in your way if you walk wisely,
and you will not stumble when you run.

Proverbs 4:5‭-‬9‭, ‬12 GNT

To be wise you must first have reverence for the Lord.

If you know the Holy One, you have understanding.
Wisdom will add years to your life.

You are the one who will profit if you have wisdom,
and if you reject it, you are the one who will suffer.

Proverbs 9:10‭-‬12 GNT
