Proverbs 8:14

¹⁹Wisdom is a strength to the wise man more than ten rulers who are in a city.

⁶For a child is born to us. A son is given to us; and the government will be on his shoulders. His name will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.

³³Oh the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and the knowledge of God! How unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past tracing out! ³⁴“For who has known the mind of the Lord? Or who has been his counselor?”

¹⁴Who did he take counsel with, and who instructed him, and taught him in the path of justice, and taught him knowledge, and showed him the way of understanding?

^6[+] For the LORD gives wisdom. Out of his mouth comes knowledge and understanding. ⁷He lays up sound wisdom for the upright. He is a shield to those who walk in integrity,

²²Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,

¹⁶Then I said, “Wisdom is better than strength.” Nevertheless the poor man’s wisdom is despised, and his words are not heard. ¹⁷The words of the wise heard in quiet are better than the cry of him who rules among fools. ¹⁸Wisdom is better than weapons of war; but one sinner destroys much good.

³in whom all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge are hidden.

⁵A wise man has great power. A knowledgeable man increases strength,

⁹The true light that enlightens everyone was coming into the world.
