For the Lord giveth wisdom: out of his mouth cometh knowledge and understanding.

A wise man will hear, and will increase learning; and a man of understanding shall attain unto wise counsels:

Give strong drink unto him that is ready to perish, and wine unto those that be of heavy hearts.

Add thou not unto His words, lest He reprove thee, and thou be found a liar.

He, that being often reproved hardeneth his neck, shall suddenly be destroyed, and that without remedy.

Let another man praise thee, and not thine own mouth; a stranger, and not thine own lips.

The great God that formed all things both rewardeth the fool, and rewardeth transgressors.

Put not forth thyself in the presence of the king, and stand not in the place of great men:

A wise man is strong; yea, a man of knowledge increaseth strength.

Speak not in the ears of a fool: for he will despise the wisdom of thy words.
