“How long, foolish ones, will you love ignorance? How long will you mockers enjoy mocking and you fools hate knowledge?

For the Lord gives wisdom; from His mouth come knowledge and understanding.
-
For wisdom will enter your mind, and knowledge will delight your heart.

By His knowledge the watery depths broke open, and the clouds dripped with dew.

The tongue of the wise makes knowledge attractive, but the mouth of fools blurts out foolishness.

The mind of the discerning acquires knowledge, and the ear of the wise seeks it.
