If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives generously to all without reproach, and it will be given him.
A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in a setting of silver.
The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge; fools despise wisdom and instruction.
Who is wise and understanding among you? By his good conduct let him show his works in the meekness of wisdom.
Paul, called by the will of God to be an apostle of Christ Jesus, and our brother Sosthenes, To the church of God that is in Corinth, to those sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to be saints together with all those who in every place call upon the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, both their Lord and ours: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. I give thanks to my God always for you because of the grace of God that was given you in Christ Jesus, that in every way you were enriched in him in all speech and all knowledge— ...
Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away.
Blows that wound cleanse away evil; strokes make clean the innermost parts.
The spirit of man is the lamp of the Lord, searching all his innermost parts.
Take a man's garment when he has put up security for a stranger, and hold it in pledge when he puts up security for foreigners.
Unequal weights and unequal measures are both alike an abomination to the Lord.
Wine is a mocker, strong drink a brawler, and whoever is led astray by it is not wise. The terror of a king is like the growling of a lion; whoever provokes him to anger forfeits his life. It is an honor for a man to keep aloof from strife, but every fool will be quarreling. The sluggard does not plow in the autumn; he will seek at harvest and have nothing. The purpose in a man's heart is like deep water, but a man of understanding will draw it out. ...
First of all, then, I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all people, for kings and all who are in high positions, that we may lead a peaceful and quiet life, godly and dignified in every way. This is good, and it is pleasing in the sight of God our Savior, who desires all people to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth. For there is one God, and there is one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus, ...
Let no one deceive you in any way. For that day will not come, unless the rebellion comes first, and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the son of destruction,
Paul, Silvanus, and Timothy, To the church of the Thessalonians in God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. We ought always to give thanks to God for you, brothers, as is right, because your faith is growing abundantly, and the love of every one of you for one another is increasing. Therefore we ourselves boast about you in the churches of God for your steadfastness and faith in all your persecutions and in the afflictions that you are enduring. This is evidence of the righteous judgment of God, that you may be considered worthy of the kingdom of God, for which you are also suffering— ...
Look carefully then how you walk, not as unwise but as wise,
And God has appointed in the church first apostles, second prophets, third teachers, then miracles, then gifts of healing, helping, administrating, and various kinds of tongues.
I speak as to sensible people; judge for yourselves what I say.
And I, when I came to you, brothers, did not come proclaiming to you the testimony of God with lofty speech or wisdom. For I decided to know nothing among you except Jesus Christ and him crucified. And I was with you in weakness and in fear and much trembling, and my speech and my message were not in plausible words of wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power, that your faith might not rest in the wisdom of men but in the power of God. ...
Now when Paul perceived that one part were Sadducees and the other Pharisees, he cried out in the council, “Brothers, I am a Pharisee, a son of Pharisees. It is with respect to the hope and the resurrection of the dead that I am on trial.”
Now these Jews were more noble than those in Thessalonica; they received the word with all eagerness, examining the Scriptures daily to see if these things were so.
And as for the fact that he raised him from the dead, no more to return to corruption, he has spoken in this way, “‘I will give you the holy and sure blessings of David.’
And he said, “Who are you, Lord?” And he said, “I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting.
And God spoke to this effect—that his offspring would be sojourners in a land belonging to others, who would enslave them and afflict them four hundred years.
Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
I tell you, on the day of judgment people will give account for every careless word they speak,
“Behold, I am sending you out as sheep in the midst of wolves, so be wise as serpents and innocent as doves.
“Everyone then who hears these words of mine and does them will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock.
The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately sick; who can understand it?
Learn to do good; seek justice, correct oppression; bring justice to the fatherless, plead the widow's cause.
The king's heart is a stream of water in the hand of the Lord; he turns it wherever he will. Every way of a man is right in his own eyes, but the Lord weighs the heart. To do righteousness and justice is more acceptable to the Lord than sacrifice. Haughty eyes and a proud heart, the lamp of the wicked, are sin. The plans of the diligent lead surely to abundance, but everyone who is hasty comes only to poverty. ...
A soft answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger.
For the Lord gives wisdom; from his mouth come knowledge and understanding;
I have stored up your word in my heart, that I might not sin against you.
Let no one deceive himself. If anyone among you thinks that he is wise in this age, let him become a fool that he may become wise.
