Yea, I attended unto you, and, behold, there was none of you that convinced Job, or that answered his words:

Also can any understand the spreadings of the clouds, or the noise of his tabernacle?

Hearken unto this, O Job: stand still, and consider the wondrous works of God.

Hast thou perceived the breadth of the earth? declare if thou knowest it all.

That thou shouldest take it to the bound thereof, and that thou shouldest know the paths to the house thereof?

Who is he that hideth counsel without knowledge? therefore have I uttered that I understood not; things too wonderful for me, which I knew not.

To the chief Musician upon Nehiloth, A Psalm of David. Give ear to my words, O LORD, consider my meditation.

Who can understand his errors? cleanse thou me from secret faults.

Because they regard not the works of the LORD, nor the operation of his hands, he shall destroy them, and not build them up.

Be ye not as the horse, or as the mule, which have no understanding: whose mouth must be held in with bit and bridle, lest they come near unto thee.

He fashioneth their hearts alike; he considereth all their works.

For yet a little while, and the wicked shall not be: yea, thou shalt diligently consider his place, and it shall not be.

Man that is in honour, and understandeth not, is like the beasts that perish.

Now consider this, ye that forget God, lest I tear you in pieces, and there be none to deliver.

Before your pots can feel the thorns, he shall take them away as with a whirlwind, both living, and in his wrath.

Until I went into the sanctuary of God; then understood I their end.

They know not, neither will they understand; they walk on in darkness: all the foundations of the earth are out of course.

A brutish man knoweth not; neither doth a fool understand this.

Yet they say, The LORD shall not see, neither shall the God of Jacob regard it.

Understand, ye brutish among the people: and ye fools, when will ye be wise?

Whoso is wise, and will observe these things, even they shall understand the lovingkindness of the LORD.

Make me to understand the way of thy precepts: so shall I talk of thy wondrous works.

Give me understanding, and I shall keep thy law; yea, I shall observe it with my whole heart.

JOD. Thy hands have made me and fashioned me: give me understanding, that I may learn thy commandments.

The wicked have waited for me to destroy me: but I will consider thy testimonies.

I understand more than the ancients, because I keep thy precepts.

Through thy precepts I get understanding: therefore I hate every false way.

I am thy servant; give me understanding, that I may know thy testimonies.

The entrance of thy words giveth light; it giveth understanding unto the simple.

The righteousness of thy testimonies is everlasting: give me understanding, and I shall live.

TAU. Let my cry come near before thee, O LORD: give me understanding according to thy word.

Thou knowest my downsitting and mine uprising, thou understandest my thought afar off.

To know wisdom and instruction; to perceive the words of understanding;

A wise man will hear, and will increase learning; and a man of understanding shall attain unto wise counsels:

To understand a proverb, and the interpretation; the words of the wise, and their dark sayings.

Then shalt thou understand the fear of the LORD, and find the knowledge of God.

Then shalt thou understand righteousness, and judgment, and equity; yea, every good path.

And beheld among the simple ones, I discerned among the youths, a young man void of understanding,

O ye simple, understand wisdom: and, ye fools, be ye of an understanding heart.

They are all plain to him that understandeth, and right to them that find knowledge.

In the lips of him that hath understanding wisdom is found: but a rod is for the back of him that is void of understanding.

A scorner seeketh wisdom, and findeth it not: but knowledge is easy unto him that understandeth.

The wisdom of the prudent is to understand his way: but the folly of fools is deceit.

The simple believeth every word: but the prudent man looketh well to his going.

Wisdom resteth in the heart of him that hath understanding: but that which is in the midst of fools is made known.

The heart of him that hath understanding seeketh knowledge: but the mouth of fools feedeth on foolishness.

The wise in heart shall be called prudent: and the sweetness of the lips increaseth learning.

A reproof entereth more into a wise man than an hundred stripes into a fool.

Wisdom is before him that hath understanding; but the eyes of a fool are in the ends of the earth.

Even a fool, when he holdeth his peace, is counted wise: and he that shutteth his lips is esteemed a man of understanding.
