-
The fear of Yahweh is the beginning of knowledge; but the foolish despise wisdom and instruction.
-
because they hated knowledge, and didn’t choose the fear of Yahweh.
-
then you will understand the fear of Yahweh, and find the knowledge of God.
-
For Yahweh gives wisdom. Out of his mouth comes knowledge and understanding.
-
Trust in Yahweh with all your heart, and don’t lean on your own understanding.
-
Don’t be wise in your own eyes. Fear Yahweh, and depart from evil.
-
Honor Yahweh with your substance, with the first fruits of all your increase:
-
My son, don’t despise Yahweh’s discipline, neither be weary of his correction;
-
for whom Yahweh loves, he corrects, even as a father reproves the son in whom he delights.
-
By wisdom Yahweh founded the earth. By understanding, he established the heavens.
-
for Yahweh will be your confidence, and will keep your foot from being taken.
-
For the perverse is an abomination to Yahweh, but his friendship is with the upright.
-
Yahweh’s curse is in the house of the wicked, but he blesses the habitation of the righteous.
-
For the ways of man are before Yahweh’s eyes. He examines all his paths.
-
There are six things which Yahweh hates; yes, seven which are an abomination to him:
-
The fear of Yahweh is to hate evil. I hate pride, arrogance, the evil way, and the perverse mouth.
-
“Yahweh possessed me in the beginning of his work, before his deeds of old.
-
For whoever finds me, finds life, and will obtain favor from Yahweh.
-
The fear of Yahweh is the beginning of wisdom. The knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.
-
Yahweh will not allow the soul of the righteous to go hungry, but he thrusts away the desire of the wicked.
-
Yahweh’s blessing brings wealth, and he adds no trouble to it.
-
The fear of Yahweh prolongs days, but the years of the wicked shall be shortened.
-
The way of Yahweh is a stronghold to the upright, but it is a destruction to the workers of iniquity.
-
A false balance is an abomination to Yahweh, but accurate weights are his delight.
-
Those who are perverse in heart are an abomination to Yahweh, but those whose ways are blameless are his delight.
