Proverbs on Becoming Wise

 Proverbs 2:1-6

First my child, listen to me and treasure my instructions. Tune your ears to wisdom, and concentrate on understanding. Cry out for insight and understanding. Search for them as you would for lost money or hidden treasure. Then you will understand what it means to fear the Lord, and you will gain knowledge of God. For the Lord grants wisdom! From his mouth come knowledge and understanding.

Proverbs 9:10

Fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. Knowledge of the Holy One results in understanding.

Wisdom will multiple your days and add years to your life. If you become wise, you will be the one to benefit. If you scorn wisdom, you will be the one to suffer.

Wine produces mockers; liquor leads to brawls. Whoever is led astray by drink cannot be wise.

A simpleton can learn only by seeing mockers punished; a wise person learns from instruction.

Next the wise have wealth and luxury, but fools spend whatever they get.

Proverbs 21:30

Human plans, no matter how wise or well advised, cannot stand against the Lord.

Don’t weary yourself trying to get rich. Why waste your time? For riches can disappear as though they had the wings of a bird!

The man who loves wisdom brings joy to his father, but if he hangs around with prostitutes, his wealth is wasted.

Mockers can get a whole town agitated, but those who are wise will calm anger.

A fool gives full vent to anger, but a wise person quietly holds back.
