Wisdom 4Today Proverbs 1:1-33 1:1: The proverbs of Solomon the son of David, king of Israel; 1:2: To know wisdom and instruction; to perceive the words of understanding; 1:3: To receive the instruction of wisdom, justice, and judgment, and equity; 1:4: To give subtilty to the simple, to the young man knowledge and discretion. 1:5: A wise man will hear, and will increase learning; and a man of understanding shall attain unto wise counsels: 1:6: To understand a proverb, and the interpretation; the words of the wise, and their dark sayings. 1:7: The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction. 1:8: My son, hear the instruction of thy father, and forsake not the law of thy mother: 1:9: For they shall be an ornament of grace unto thy head, and chains about thy neck. 1:10: My son, if sinners entice thee, consent thou not. 1:11: If they say, Come with us, let us lay wait for blood, let us lurk privily for the innocent without cause: 1:12: Let us swallow them up alive as the grave; and whole, as those that go down into the pit: 1:13: We shall find all precious substance, we shall fill our houses with spoil: 1:14: Cast in thy lot among us; let us all have one purse: 1:15: My son, walk not thou in the way with them; refrain thy foot from their path: 1:16: For their feet run to evil, and make haste to shed blood. 1:17: Surely in vain the net is spread in the sight of any bird. 1:18: And they lay wait for their own blood; they lurk privily for their own lives. 1:19: So are the ways of every one that is greedy of gain; which taketh away the life of the owners thereof. 1:20: Wisdom crieth without; she uttereth her voice in the streets: 1:21: She crieth in the chief place of concourse, in the openings of the gates: in the city she uttereth her words, saying, 1:22: How long, ye simple ones, will ye love simplicity? and the scorners delight in their scorning, and fools hate knowledge? 1:23: Turn you at my reproof: behold, I will pour out my spirit unto you, I will make known my words unto you. 1:24: Because I have called, and ye refused; I have stretched out my hand, and no man regarded; 1:25: But ye have set at nought all my counsel, and would none of my reproof: 1:26: I also will laugh at your calamity; I will mock when your fear cometh; 1:27: When your fear cometh as desolation, and your destruction cometh as a whirlwind; when distress and anguish cometh upon you. 1:28: Then shall they call upon me, but I will not answer; they shall seek me early, but they shall not find me: 1:29: For that they hated knowledge, and did not choose the fear of the LORD: 1:30: They would none of my counsel: they despised all my reproof. 1:31: Therefore shall they eat of the fruit of their own way, and be filled with their own devices. 1:32: For the turning away of the simple shall slay them, and the prosperity of fools shall destroy them. 1:33: But whoso hearkeneth unto me shall dwell safely, and shall be quiet from fear of evil.[King James Version] @via Bible On The Go for Windows Phone 7 BBlessed
