Words of Wisdom

The book of Proverbs is full of God's Wisdom for people of any generation, of any age. I will write out one chapter, it does not matter which one. It is full of instruction for living! May as well start with chapter 1:
The proverbs of Solomon son of David, king of Israel: 2: for attaining wisdom and discipline; for understanding words of insight; 3: for acquiring a disciplined and prudent life, doing what is right and just and fair; 4: for giving prudence to the simple, knowledge and discretion to the young--5: let the wise listen and add to their learning, and let the discerning get guidance--6: for understanding proverbs and parables, the saying and riddles of the wise. 7: The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and discipline. 8: Listen, my son, to your father's instruction and do not forsake your mother's teaching. 9: They will be a garland to grace your head and a chain to adorn your neck. 10: My son, if sinners entice you, do not give in to them. 11: If they say, "Come along with us; let's lie in wait for someone's blood, let's waylay some harmless soul; let's swallow them alive, like the grave, and whole like those who go down to the pit; 13: we will get all sorts of valuable things and fill our houses with plunder; 14: throw in your lot with us, and we will share a common purse--15: my son, do not go along with them, do not set foot on their paths; 16: for their feet rush into sin, they are swift to shed blood. 17: How useless to spread a net in full view of all the birds! 18: These men lie in wait for their own blood; they waylay only themselves! 19: Such is the end of all who go after ill-gotten gain; it takes away the lives of those who get it. 20: Wisdom calls aloud in the street, she raises her voice in the public squares; 21 at the head of the noisey streets she cries out, in the gateways of the city she makes her speech: 22: How long will you simple ones love your simple ways? How long will mockers delight in mockery and fools hate knowledge? 23: If you had responded to my rebuke, I would have poured out my heart to you and made my thoughts known to you. 24: But since you rejected me when I called and no one gave heed when I stretched out my hand, 25: since you ignored all my advice and would not accept my rebuke 26: I in turn will laugh at your disaster; I will mock when calamity overtakes you-- 27: when calamity overtakes you like a storm, when disaster sweeps over you like a whirlwind, when distress and trouble overwhelm you. 28: Then they will call to me but I will not answer; they will look for me but will not find me. 29: Since they hated knowledge and did not choose to fear the Lord, 30: since they would not accept my advice and spurned my rebuke, 31: they will eat the fruit of their ways and be filled with the fruit of their schemes. 32: For the waywardness of the simple will kill them, and the complacency of fools will destroy them; 33: but whoever listens to me will live in safety and be at ease, without fear of harm.
