The end of the matter: Fear God and keep his commandments; for this is the whole duty of man. When I turn at the spirit’s reproof, God pours his spirit to me and He makes his word known to me. I receive my father’s words and I treasure His Commandments. I made my ear attentive to wisdom and I incline my heart to understanding. I call out for insight and pray for understanding. I seek these things like silver and search for them like hidden treasure. As I do, I understand the fear of the Lord and find knowledge of God.
For the Lord gives wisdom, and from his mouth comes knowledge and understanding. He stores up wisdom for the upright and he is a shield for those who walk with integrity. He guards the paths of justice and watches over his saints. They will understand righteousness and justice and equity and every good path. For wisdom will come into their heart.
