Proverbs 1:5-9
21st Century King James Version
5 A wise man will hear and will increase learning, and a man of understanding shall attain unto wise counsel
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.
8 My son, hear the instruction of thy father, and forsake not the law of thy mother;
9 for they shall be an ornament of grace unto thy head, and chains about thy neck.

2 My son, if thou wilt receive my words and hide my commandments within thee,
2 so that thou incline thine ear unto wisdom and apply thine heart to understanding;
3 yea, if thou criest after knowledge, and liftest up thy voice for understanding;
4 if thou seekest her as silver and searchest for her as for hidden treasure,
5 then shalt thou understand the fear of the Lord, and find the knowledge of God.
6 For the Lord giveth wisdom; out of His mouth cometh knowledge and understanding.
