13 Who is wise and understanding among you? By his good life let him show his works in the meekness of wisdom.
37 And he said to him, "You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind.
2 Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth.
17 Iron sharpens iron, and one man sharpens another.
2 For I decided to know nothing among you except Jesus Christ and him crucified.
13 Happy is the man who finds wisdom, and the man who gets understanding,
15 Look carefully then how you walk, not as unwise men but as wise,
16 making the most of the time, because the days are evil.
24 "Every one then who hears these words of mine and does them will be like a wise man who built his house upon the rock;
8 He who gets wisdom loves himself; he who keeps understanding will prosper.
12 A prudent man sees danger and hides himself; but the simple go on, and suffer for it.
28 Even a fool who keeps silent is considered wise; when he closes his lips, he is deemed intelligent.
3 For by the grace given to me I bid every one among you not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think with sober judgment, each according to the measure of faith which God has assigned him.
20 Ever since the creation of the world his invisible nature, namely, his eternal power and deity, has been clearly perceived in the things that have been made. So they are without excuse;
18 For in much wisdom is much vexation, and he who increases knowledge increases sorrow.
5 A fool despises his father's instruction, but he who heeds admonition is prudent.
