Reading: Get wisdom and understanding 2018-02-14
Reference: Proverbs 4:5-13 (KJV)
5Get wisdom, get understanding:
Forget it not; neither decline from the words of my mouth.
6Forsake her not, and she shall preserve thee:
Love her, and she shall keep thee.
7Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom:
And with all thy getting get understanding.
8Exalt her, and she shall promote thee:
She shall bring thee to honour, when thou dost embrace her.
9She shall give to thine head an ornament of grace:
A crown of glory shall she deliver to thee.
10Hear, O my son, and receive my sayings;
And the years of thy life shall be many.
11I have taught thee in the way of wisdom;
I have led thee in right paths.
12When thou goest, thy steps shall not be straitened;
And when thou runnest, thou shalt not stumble.
13Take fast hold of instruction; let her not go:
Keep her; for she is thy life.
