²⁴ Wisdom is before the face of him that hath understanding;
But the eyes of a fool are in the ends of the earth.

¹⁵ The heart of the prudent getteth knowledge;
And the ear of the wise seeketh knowledge.

⁸ He that getteth ^[a]wisdom loveth his own soul:
He that keepeth understanding shall find good.

⁵ Counsel in the heart of man is like deep water;
But a man of understanding will draw it out.

¹² The hearing ear, and the seeing eye,
Jehovah hath made even both of them.
