1 | 1 | The proverbs of Solomon the son of David, king of Israel; |
1 | 2 | To know wisdom and instruction; to perceive the words of understanding; |
1 | 3 | To receive the instruction of wisdom, justice, and judgment, and equity; |
1 | 4 | To give subtilty to the simple, to the young man knowledge and discretion. |
1 | 5 | A wise man will hear, and will increase learning; and a man of understanding shall attain unto wise counsels: |
1 | 6 | To understand a proverb, and the interpretation; the words of the wise, and their dark sayings. |
1 | 7 | The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction. |
1 | 8 | My son, hear the instruction of thy father, and forsake not the law of thy mother: |
1 | 9 | For they shall be an ornament of grace unto thy head, and chains about thy neck. |
1 | 10 | My son, if sinners entice thee, consent thou not. |
