6:16-19
16\u00a0There are six things the\u00a0Lord\u00a0hates,
\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0seven that are detestable to him:
17 haughty eyes…<\/p>\n\n\n\n
11:2\u00a0When pride comes, then comes disgrace,
\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0but with humility comes wisdom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
16:18\u00a0Pride goes before destruction,\u00a0
a haughty spirit before a fall.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
18:12\u00a0Before a downfall the heart is haughty,\u00a0
but humility comes before honor.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
29:23\u00a0Pride brings a person low,\u00a0
but the lowly in spirit gain honor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
15:33 Wisdom\u2019s instruction is to fear the Lord,\u00a0
and humility comes before honor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
25:6-7
6\u00a0Do not exalt yourself in the king\u2019s presence,\u00a0
and do not claim a place among his great men;\u00a0
7\u00a0it is better for him to say to you, \u201cCome up here,\u201d\u00a0
than for him to humiliate you before his nobles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
1:7 \u201cThe fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
22:4\u00a0Humility is the fear of the Lord;\u00a0
its wages are riches and honor and life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
3:5-8
5\u00a0Trust in the\u00a0Lord\u00a0with all your heart
\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0and lean not on your own understanding;
6\u00a0in all your ways submit to him,
\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0and he will make your paths straight.
7\u00a0Do not be wise in your own eyes;
\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0fear the\u00a0Lord\u00a0and shun evil.
8\u00a0This will bring health to your body
\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0and nourishment to your bones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
30:1-4
1 The sayings of Agur son of Jakeh\u2014an inspired utterance.\u00a0
This man\u2019s utterance to Ithiel:\u00a0
\u201cI am weary, God,\u00a0
but I can prevail.\u00a0
2\u00a0Surely I am only a brute, not a man;\u00a0
I do not have human understanding.\u00a0
3\u00a0I have not learned wisdom,\u00a0
nor have I attained to the knowledge of the Holy One.\u00a0
4\u00a0Who has gone up to heaven and come down?\u00a0
Whose hands have gathered up the wind?\u00a0
Who has wrapped up the waters in a cloak?\u00a0
Who has established all the ends of the earth?\u00a0
What is his name, and what is the name of his son?\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
1:5 The wise listen and add to their learning<\/p>\n\n\n\n
1:7 fools despise wisdom and instruction.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
26:12\u00a0Do you see a person wise in their own eyes?\u00a0
There is more hope for a fool than for them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
9:7-10
7\u00a0Whoever corrects a mocker invites insults;
\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0whoever rebukes the wicked incurs abuse.
8\u00a0Do not rebuke mockers or they will hate you;
\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0rebuke the wise and they will love you.
9\u00a0Instruct the wise and they will be wiser still;
\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0teach the righteous and they will add to their learning.
10\u00a0The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom,\u00a0
and knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
12:1 Whoever loves discipline loves knowledge,\u00a0
but whoever hates correction is stupid.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
12:15\u00a0The way of fools seems right to them,\u00a0
but the wise listen to advice.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
13:1 A wise son heeds his father\u2019s instruction,\u00a0
but a mocker does not respond to rebukes.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
13:10\u00a0Where there is strife, there is pride,\u00a0
but wisdom is found in those who take advice.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
13:13\u00a0Whoever scorns instruction will pay for it,\u00a0
but whoever respects a command is rewarded.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
13:14\u00a0The teaching of the wise is a fountain of life,\u00a0
turning a person from the snares of death.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
13:18\u00a0Whoever disregards discipline comes to poverty and shame,\u00a0
but whoever heeds correction is honored.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
14:12 & 16:25 There is a way that appears to be right,
but in the end it leads to death.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
15:5\u00a0A fool spurns a parent\u2019s discipline,\u00a0
but whoever heeds correction shows prudence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
15:10\u00a0Stern discipline awaits anyone who leaves the path;\u00a0
the one who hates correction will die.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
15:12\u00a0Mockers resent correction,\u00a0
so they avoid the wise.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
15:31\u00a0Whoever heeds life-giving correction\u00a0
will be at home among the wise.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
15:32\u00a0Those who disregard discipline despise themselves,\u00a0
but the one who heeds correction gains understanding.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
17:10\u00a0A rebuke impresses a discerning person\u00a0
more than a hundred lashes a fool.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
18:2\u00a0Fools find no pleasure in understanding\u00a0
but delight in airing their own opinions.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
18:15\u00a0The heart of the discerning acquires knowledge,\u00a0
for the ears of the wise seek it out.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
19:25\u00a0Flog a mocker, and the simple will learn prudence;\u00a0
rebuke the discerning, and they will gain knowledge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
19:27\u00a0Stop listening to instruction, my son,\u00a0
and you will stray from the words of knowledge.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
21:11\u00a0When a mocker is punished, the simple gain wisdom;\u00a0
by paying attention to the wise they get knowledge.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
23:9\u00a0Do not speak to fools,\u00a0
for they will scorn your prudent words.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
25:12\u00a0Like an earring of gold or an ornament of fine gold\u00a0
is the rebuke of a wise judge to a listening ear.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
27:22\u00a0Though you grind a fool in a mortar,\u00a0
grinding them like grain with a pestle,\u00a0
you will not remove their folly from them.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
29:1 Whoever remains stiff-necked after many rebukes\u00a0
will suddenly be destroyed\u2014without remedy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
26:11\u00a0As a dog returns to its vomit,\u00a0
so fools repeat their folly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
30:12-13\u00a0
12 \u201cthere are those who are pure in their own eyes and yet are not cleansed of their filth;\u00a0
13 those whose eyes are ever so haughty, whose glances are so disdainful.\u201d \u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
