Proverbs 1:2-7

²To know wisdom, and instruction:

³To understand the words of prudence: and to receive the instruction of doctrine, justice, and judgment, and equity:

⁴To give subtilty to little ones, to the young man knowledge and understanding.

⁵A wise man shall hear and shall be wiser: and he that understandeth, shall possess governments.

⁶He shall understand a parable, and the interpretation, the words of the wise, and their mysterious sayings.

⁷The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. Fools despise wisdom and instruction.
