17 Let the elders who rule well be counted worthy of double honor, especially those who labor in word and doctrine.
18 For the Scripture says, You shall not muzzle the ox treading out grain, and, The laborer [is] worthy of his reward.
10 The fear of the LORD [is] the beginning of wisdom; and the knowledge of the holy [is] understanding.
13 Take fast hold of instruction; do not let go; keep her; for she [is] your life.
14 Enter not into the path of the wicked, and go not into the way of evil.
4 For whatever things were written before were written for our learning, so that we through patience and comfort of the Scriptures might have hope.
20 My son, keep your father's commandments, and do not forsake the law of your mother;
21 bind them upon your heart forever, tie them around your neck.
22 When you go, it shall lead you; when you sleep, it shall keep you; and [when] you awake, it shall talk [with] you.
23 For the commandment [is] a lamp; and the law [is] light; and reproofs of instruction [are] the way of life;
5 And you shall love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your might.
6 And these words which I command you this day shall be in your heart.
7 And you shall carefully teach them to your sons, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise up.
23 Keep your heart with all diligence; for out of it [are] the issues of life.
24 Put away from you a wicked mouth, and devious lips put far from you.
25 Let your eyes look right on, and let your eyelids look straight before you.
26 Ponder the path of your feet, and all your ways [will be] established.
27 Do not turn to the right hand nor to the left; remove your foot from evil.
1 An instruction of Asaph. Give ear, O my people, [to] my law; bow down your ears to the words of my mouth.
2 I will open my mouth in a parable; I will speak dark sayings of old,
3 which we have heard and known, and our fathers have told us.
4 We will not hide [them] from their sons, showing to the generations to come the praises of the LORD, and His strength, and His wonderful works that He has done.
16 All Scripture [is] God-breathed, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness,
17 that the man of God may be perfected, thoroughly furnished to every good work.
8 My son, hear the instruction of your father, and forsake not the law of your mother;
9 for they [shall be] an ornament of grace to your head and chains around your neck.
10 And also all that generation were gathered to their fathers. And there arose another generation after them who did not know the LORD, nor even the works which He had done for Israel.
16 But shun profane, vain babblings, for they will increase to more ungodliness.
17 And their word will eat like a gangrene; among whom [are] Hymeneus and Philetus,
24 Therefore whoever hears these sayings of Mine, and does them, I will liken him to a wise man who built his house on a rock.
5 Get wisdom, get understanding; forget not; nor turn away from the words of my mouth.
6 Do not forsake her, and she shall keep you; love her, and she shall keep you.
7 Wisdom [is] the main thing; get wisdom; and with all your getting get understanding.
8 Prize her, and she shall lift you up; she shall bring you to honor when you embrace her.
16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.
1 The proverbs of Solomon the son of David, king of Israel;
2 to know wisdom and instruction; to recognize the words of understanding;
3 to receive the instruction of wisdom, justice, and judgment, and uprightness;
4 to give sense to the simple, knowledge and judgment to the young man;
5 the wise hears and increases learning; and understanding ones gets wisdom;
6 to understand a proverb and its meaning; the words of the wise, and their acute sayings.
7 The fear of the LORD [is] the beginning of knowledge; but fools despise wisdom and instruction.
14 Now about the middle of the feast, Jesus went up into the temple and taught.
15 And the Jews marveled, saying, How does this man know letters, not being taught?
16 Jesus answered them and said, My doctrine is not Mine, but His who sent Me.
17 If anyone desires to do His will, he shall know of the doctrine, whether it is of God, or I speak from Myself.
18 He who speaks of himself seeks his own glory, but he who seeks the glory of Him who sent Him is true, and no unrighteousness is in Him.
14 The law of the wise [is] a fountain of life, to depart from the snares of death.
9 Everyone transgressing and not abiding in the doctrine of Christ does not have God. He who abides in the doctrine of Christ, he has both the Father and the Son.
