Listen to what is wise and try to understand it

Listen to what is wise and try to understand it. Yes, beg for knowledge; plead for insight. Look for it as hard as you would for silver or some hidden treasure. If you do, you will know what it means to fear the LORD and you will succeed in learning about God. It is the LORD who gives wisdom; from Him come knowledge and understanding. But if any one of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all freely and reproaches not, and it shall be given to him

Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you. Ask, and it shall be given to you; seek, and you shall find; knock, and it shall be opened to you. You will become wise, and your knowledge will give you pleasure. Your insight and understanding will protect you and prevent you from doing the wrong thing.

Happy is anyone who becomes wise—who comes to have understanding. There is more profit in it than there is in silver; it is worth more to you than gold. Wisdom is more valuable than jewels; nothing you could want can compare with it. Wisdom can make your life pleasant and lead you safely through it. My child, hold on to your wisdom and insight. Never let them get away from you. They will provide you with life—a pleasant and happy life.

Now without faith it is impossible to please God. For the one who comes to God must believe that He exists and that He is a rewarder of those who seek Him.
