The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding. read more For by me thy days shall be multiplied, and the years of thy life shall be increased. If thou be wise, thou shalt be wise for thyself: but if thou scornest, thou alone shalt bear it. show less
