Bible Scriptures For The Week: The Commandments And Wisdom

Hi there 🙂

This week I’ve been reading on the commandments and wisdom. =)

Psalm 111:10

The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: a good understanding have all they that do his commandments: his praise endureth for ever.

Proverbs 6

1 My son, if thou be surety for thy friend, if thou hast stricken thy hand with a stranger,

2 Thou art snared with the words of thy mouth, thou art taken with the words of thy mouth.

3 Do this now, my son, and deliver thyself, when thou art come into the hand of thy friend; go, humble thyself, and make sure thy friend.

4 Give not sleep to thine eyes, nor slumber to thine eyelids.

5 Deliver thyself as a roe from the hand of the hunter, and as a bird from the hand of the fowler.

6 Go to the ant, thou sluggard; consider her ways, and be wise:

7 Which having no guide, overseer, or ruler,

8 Provideth her meat in the summer, and gathereth her food in the harvest.

9 How long wilt thou sleep, O sluggard? when wilt thou arise out of thy sleep?

10 Yet a little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to sleep:

11 So shall thy poverty come as one that travelleth, and thy want as an armed man.

12 A naughty person, a wicked man, walketh with a froward mouth.

13 He winketh with his eyes, he speaketh with his feet, he teacheth with his fingers;

14 Frowardness is in his heart, he deviseth mischief continually; he soweth discord.

15 Therefore shall his calamity come suddenly; suddenly shall he be broken without remedy.

16 These six things doth the LORD hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto him:

17 A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood,

18 An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief,

19 A false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren.

20 My son, keep thy father’s commandment, and forsake not the law of thy mother:

21 Bind them continually upon thine heart, and tie them about thy neck.

22 When thou goest , it shall lead thee; when thou sleepest , it shall keep thee; and when thou awakest , it shall talk with thee.

23 For the commandment is a lamp;

and the law is light; and reproofs of instruction are the way of life

Wisdom

“For wisdom is a safeguard, as money is a safeguard,
but the excellency of knowledge is that wisdom giveth life
to them that have it.”
Ecclesiastes 7:12

“Teach me good discernment and knowledge,
For I believe in Your commandments.”
Psalms 119:66

“The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge;
Fools despise wisdom and instruction.”
Proverbs 1:7

“For the LORD gives wisdom;From His mouth come knowledge and understanding.”
Proverbs 2:6

The Proverbs 4

The Beneficence of Wisdom

Hear, ye children, the instruction of a father,

and attend to know understanding.

For I give you good doctrine,

forsake ye not my law.

For I was my father’s son,

tender and only beloved in the sight of my mother.

He taught me also, and said unto me,

	Let thine heart retain my words:
	keep my commandments, and live.

Get wisdom, get understanding:

forget it not; neither decline from the words of my mouth.

Forsake her not, and she shall preserve thee:

love her, and she shall keep thee.

Wisdom is the principal thing;

	thereforeget wisdom:
	and with all thy getting get understanding.

Exalt her, and she shall promote thee:

she shall bring thee to honor, when thou dost embrace her.

She shall give to thine head an ornament of grace:

a crown of glory shall she deliver to thee.

Hear, O my son, and receive my sayings;

and the years of thy life shall be many.

I have taught thee in the way of wisdom;

I have led thee in right paths.

When thou goest, thy steps shall not be straitened;

and when thou runnest, thou shalt not stumble.

Take fast hold of instruction;

	let her not go:
	keep her; for she is thy life.

Enter not into the path of the wicked,

and go not in the way of evil men.

Avoid it, pass not by it,

turn from it, and pass away.

For they sleep not, except they have done mischief;

and their sleep is taken away, unless they cause some to fall.

For they eat the bread of wickedness,

and drink the wine of violence.

But the path of the just is as the shining light,

that shineth more and more unto the perfect day.

The way of the wicked is as darkness:

they know not at what they stumble.

My son, attend to my words;

incline thine ear unto my sayings.

Let them not depart from thine eyes;

keep them in the midst of thine heart.

For they are life unto those that find them,

and health to all their flesh.

Keep thy heart with all diligence;

for out of it are the issues of life.

Put away from thee a froward mouth,

and perverse lips put far from thee.

Let thine eyes look right on,

and let thine eyelids look straight before thee.

Ponder the path of thy feet, Heb. 12.13

and let all thy ways be established.

Turn not to the right hand nor to the left:

remove thy foot from evil.

God Bless you this week! 🙂
