Verse..................................

1   The proverbs of Solomon the son of David, king of Israel;

2   To know wisdom and instruction; to perceive the words of understanding;

3   To receive the instruction of wisdom, justice, and judgment, and equity;

4   To give subtilty to the simple, to the young man knowledge and discretion.

5   A wise man will hear, and will increase learning; and a man of understanding shall attain unto wise counsels:

6   To understand a proverb, and the interpretation; the words of the wise, and their dark sayings.

7   The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction.

-Proverbs 1:1-7
