3to receive also hard sayings, and to understand true justice, and how to direct judgment;
4that he might give subtlety to the simple, and to the young man discernment and understanding.
5For by the hearing of these a wise man will be wiser, and the man of understanding will gain direction;
6and will understand a parable, and a dark speech; the sayings of the wise also, and riddles.
