Words of Wisdom from the Bible
A
word fitly spoken in like apples of gold in
pictures of silver. -- Proverbs
25:11
Let
thy words be few. -- Ecclesiastes
5:2
The
words of a wise man's mouth are gracious; but
the lips of a fool will swallow up himself.
-- Ecclesiastes 10:12
Wisdom
strengtheneth the wise more than ten mighty
men which are in the city. -- Ecclesiastes
7:19
And
he changeth the times and the seasons: he removeth
kings, and setteth up kings: he giveth wisdom
unto the wise, and knowledge to them that know
understanding -- Daniel
2:21
Also
take no heed unto all words that are spoken;
lest thou hear thy servant curse thee: for oftentimes
also thine own heart knoweth that thou thyself
likewise hast cursed others.
--
Ecclesiastes
7:21-22
Which
things also we speak, not in the words which
man's wisdom teaches, but which the Holy Spirit
teaches. -- Corinthians
2:13
Wisdom
is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom:
and with all thy getting get understanding.
Exalt her, and she shall promote thee: she shall
bring thee to honor, when thou dost embrace
her.
She shall give to thine head an ornament of
grace: a crown of glory shall she deliver to
thee.
Hear, O my son, and receive my sayings; and
the years of thy life shall be many.
I have taught thee in the way of wisdom; I have
led thee in right paths.
When thou goest, thy steps shall not be straitened;
and when thou runnest, thou shalt not stumble.
Take fast hold of instruction; let her not go:
keep her; for she is thy life.
Proverbs
4:7-13
