20
To fear God is the fulness of wisdom, and fulness is from the fruits thereof.
21
She shall fill all her house with her increase, and the storehouses with her treasures.
22
The fear of the Lord is a crown of wisdom, filling up peace and the fruit of salvation:
23
And it hath seen, and numbered her: but both are the gifts of God.
24
Wisdom shall distribute knowledge, and understanding of prudence: and exalteth the glory of them that hold her.
25
The root of wisdom is to fear the Lord: and the branches thereof are longlived.
26
In the treasures of wisdom is understanding, and religiousness of knowledge: but to sinners wisdom is an abomination.
27
The fear of the Lord driveth out sin:
28
For he that is without fear, cannot be justified: for the wrath of his high spirits is his ruin.
29
A patient man shall bear for a time, and afterwards joy shall be restored to him.
30
A good understanding will hide his words for a time, and the lips of many shall declare his wisdom.
