Proverbs 1:6

4to give prudence to the simple, knowledge and discretion to the young man—

5that the wise man may hear, and increase in learning; that the man of understanding may attain to sound counsel;

6to understand a proverb and parables, the words and riddles of the wise.

7The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge, but the foolish despise wisdom and instruction.

8My son, listen to your father’s instruction, and don’t forsake your mother’s teaching;
