Proverbs 1:2-7 ▼

2 To learne wisdome and instruction, & to perceaue the wordes of vnderstandyng,

3 To receaue the instruction of wisdome, iustice, iudgement, and equitie:

4 To geue wyt vnto the simple, and that the young men myght haue knowledge and vnderstandyng.

5 The wise man wyll geue eare, and wyll come by more wisdome, and he that is endued with vnderstanding shal attayne vnto wise counsayles.

6 To vnderstande a parable, and the interpretation therof, the wordes of the wise, and their darke speaches.

7 The feare of the Lorde is the begynnyng of knowledge: but fooles dispise wisdome and instruction.
