GET WISDOM

Photo provided by Renie Brandow 

Get wisdom, get understanding: forget it not;

neither decline from the words of my mouth.

Forsake her not, and she shall preserve 

thee: love her, and she shall keep thee.

Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get 

wisdom: and with all thy getting get 

understanding.  Exalt her, and she shall promote 

thee: she shall bring thee to honour, when 

thou dost embrace her.  She shall give to thine 

head an ornament of grace: a crown of 

glory shall she deliver to thee.  Hear, O my 

son, and receive my sayings; and the years 

of thy life shall be many.  I have taught thee 

in the way of wisdom; I have led thee in 

right paths.  When thou goest, thy steps shall

 not be straitened; and when thou runnest,

 thou shalt not stumble.  Take fast hold 

of instruction; let her not go: keep her; for 

she is thy life. Enter not into the path of 

the wicked, and go not in the way of evil men.

Avoid it, pass not by it, turn from it, and pass 

away.  For they sleep not, except they have done 

mischief; and their sleep is taken away, unless 

they cause some to fall.  For they eat the bread 

of wickedness, and drink the wine of violence.

But the path of the just is as the shining light, that 

shineth more and more unto the perfect day.

The way of the wicked is as darkness: they know 

not at what they stumble.  My son, attend to my 

words; incline thine ear unto my sayings.  Let them 

not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst 

of thine heart.  For they are life unto those that

 find them, and health to all their flesh.  Keep thy 

heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues 

of life.  Put away from thee a froward mouth, and 

perverse lips put far from thee.  Let thine eyes look 

right on, and let thine eyelids look straight before 

thee.  Ponder the path of thy feet, and let all thy 

ways be established.  Turn not to the right hand 

nor to the left: remove thy foot from evil.  My son, 

attend unto my wisdom, and bow thine ear to 

my understanding: That thou mayest regard 

discretion, and that thy lips may keep knowledge.

Proverbs 4:5- 5:2
