Wisdom will avoid a deceptive soul that plans evil. Wisdom won't make her home in a body that is devoted to sin.
5
A holy, instructive spirit will flee deceit and leave when ignorant people start to plot. It is ashamed to be found in the presence of wrongdoing.

Wisdom is a spirit that wants only what is best for humans. Wisdom won't declare blasphemers to be innocent because their own words convict them. God is witness to their thoughts. Truth examines the heart and hears what is said.

The Lord's Spirit fills the whole world. It holds everything together and knows what everyone says.
