English Standard Version
Proverbs 1:2-7
English Standard Version
2 To know wisdom and instruction,
to understand words of insight,
3 to receive instruction in wise dealing,
in (A)righteousness, justice, and equity;
4 to give prudence to (B)the simple,
knowledge and (C)discretion to the youth—
5 Let the wise hear and (D)increase in learning,
and the one who understands obtain guidance,
6 to understand a proverb and a saying,
(E)the words of the wise and their (F)riddles.
7 (G)The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge;
fools despise wisdom and instruction.
