Moral Benefits of Wisdom
My son, if you accept my words and store up my commands within you, turning your ear to wisdom and
applying your heart to understanding, and if you call out for insight and cry aloud for understanding, and
if you look for it as for silver and search for it as for hidden treasure, then you will understand the fear of
the LORD and find the knowledge of God. For the LORD gives wisdom, and from his mouth come
knowledge and understanding. He holds victory in store for the upright, he is a shield to those whose
walk is blameless, for he guards the course of the just and protects the way of his faithful ones. Then you
will understand what is right and just and fair—every good path. For wisdom will enter your heart, and
knowledge will be pleasant to your soul. Discretion will protect you, and understanding will guard you.
Wisdom will save you from the ways of wicked men, from men whose words are perverse, who leave
the straight paths to walk in dark ways, who delight in doing wrong and rejoice in the perverseness of
evil, whose paths are crooked and who are devious in their ways.
Proverbs 2:1-15
