Proverbs 1:7

⁵that the wise man may hear, and increase in learning; that the man of understanding may attain to sound counsel:

⁶to understand a proverb, and parables, the words and riddles of the wise.

⁷The fear of Yahweh is the beginning of knowledge; but the foolish despise wisdom and instruction.

⁸My son, listen to your father’s instruction, and don’t forsake your mother’s teaching:

⁹for they will be a garland to grace your head, and chains around your neck.
