Proverbs 1:1-7 - Wisdom - Brian Seay (Disciple Makers) - 8.16.2026

The Beginning of Knowledge1 The proverbs of Solomon, son of David, king of Israel:2 To know wisdom and instruction, to understand words of insight, 3 to receive instruction in wise dealing, in righteousness, justice, and equity; 4 to give prudence to the simple, knowledge and discretion to the youth— 5 Let the wise hear and increase in learning, and the one who understands obtain guidance, 6 to understand a proverb and a saying, the words of the wise and their riddles.7 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge; fools despise wisdom and instruction.
