“I listened ^H8085 to the reprimand ^H4148 which insults ^H3639 me,

And the spirit ^H7307 of my understanding ^H998 makes me answer ^H6030.

“But where ^H370 can wisdom ^H2451 be found ^H4672?

And where ^H335 is the place ^H4725 of understanding ^H998?

“Where ^H370 then does wisdom ^H2451 come ^H935 from?

And where ^H335 is this ^H2088 place ^H4725 of understanding ^H998?

“And to mankind ^H120 He said ^H559, ‘Behold ^H2005, the fear ^H3374 of the Lord ^H136, that is wisdom ^H2451;

And to turn ^H5493 away ^H5493 from evil ^H7451 is understanding ^H998.’”

“But if ^H518 you have understanding ^H998, hear ^H8085 this ^H2088;

“Where ^H375 were you when I laid ^H3245 the foundation ^H3245 of the earth ^H776?

Tell ^H5046 Me, if ^H518 you [fn]have ^H3045 understanding ^H998,

“Who ^H4310 has put ^H7896 wisdom ^H2451 in the innermost ^H2910 being ^H2910,

Or ^H176 given ^H5414 understanding ^H998 to the [fn]mind ^H7907?

Because ^H3588 God ^H433 has made her forget ^H5382 wisdom ^H2451,

And has not given ^H2505 her a ^H2505 share ^H2505 of understanding ^H998.

“Is it by your understanding ^H998 that the hawk ^H5322 soars ^H82,

Stretching ^H6566 his wings ^H3671 toward the south ^H8486?

To know ^H3045 wisdom ^H2451 and instruction ^H4148,

To discern ^H995 the sayings ^H561 of understanding ^H998,

For if ^H518 you cry ^H7121 out ^H7121 for insight ^H998,

And [fn]raise ^H5414 your voice ^H6963 for understanding ^H8394;

Trust ^H982 in the LORD ^H3068 with all ^H3605 your heart ^H3820

And do not lean ^H8172 on your own understanding ^H998.

Listen ^H8085, my sons ^H1121, to the instruction ^H4148 of a father ^H1,

And pay ^H7181 attention ^H7181 so that you may [fn]gain ^H3045 understanding ^H998,

Acquire ^H7069 wisdom ^H2451! Acquire ^H7069 understanding ^H998!

Do not forget ^H7911 nor ^H408 turn ^H5186 away ^H5186 from the words ^H561 of my mouth ^H6310.

“The [fn]beginning ^H7225 of wisdom ^H2451 is: Acquire ^H7069 wisdom ^H2451;

And with all ^H3605 your possessions ^H7075, acquire ^H7069 understanding ^H998.

Say ^H559 to wisdom ^H2451, “You are my sister ^H269,”

And call ^H7121 understanding ^H998 your intimate ^H4129 friend ^H4129,

“Advice ^H6098 is mine and sound ^H8454 wisdom ^H8454;

I am understanding ^H998, power ^H1369 is mine.

“[fn]Abandon ^H5800 your foolishness ^H6612 and live ^H2421,

And proceed ^H833 in the way ^H1870 of understanding ^H998.”

The fear ^H3374 of the LORD ^H3068 is the beginning ^H8462 of wisdom ^H2451,

And the knowledge ^H1847 of the Holy ^H6918 One ^H6918 is understanding ^H998.

How ^H4100 much better ^H2896 it is to get ^H7069 wisdom ^H2451 than ^H4480 gold ^H2742!

And to get ^H7069 understanding ^H998 is to be chosen ^H977 above ^H4480 silver ^H3701.

Do not weary ^H3021 yourself to gain ^H6238 wealth ^H6238;

[fn]Stop ^H2308 dwelling ^H998 on it.

Buy ^H7069 truth ^H571, and do not sell ^H4376 it,

Get wisdom ^H2451, instruction ^H4148, and understanding ^H998.

I am certainly ^H3588 more ^H4480 stupid ^H1198 than ^H4480 any ^H376 man ^H376,

And I do not have the understanding ^H998 of a man ^H120;

The Spirit ^H7307 of the LORD ^H3068 will rest ^H5117 on Him,

The spirit ^H7307 of wisdom ^H2451 and understanding ^H998,

The spirit ^H7307 of counsel ^H6098 and strength ^H1369,

The spirit ^H7307 of knowledge ^H1847 and the fear ^H3374 of the LORD ^H3068.

When its limbs ^H7105 are ^H3001 dry ^H3001, they are broken ^H7665 off;

Women ^H802 come ^H935 and make ^H215 a ^H215 fire ^H215 with them,

For they are not a people ^H5971 of discernment ^H998,

Therefore ^H5921 H3651 their Maker ^H6213 will not have ^H7355 compassion ^H7355 on ^H7355 them.

And their Creator ^H3335 will not be ^H2603 gracious ^H2603 to them.

Therefore ^H3651 behold ^H2009, I will once again ^H3254 deal ^H6381 marvelously ^H6381 with this ^H2088 people ^H5971, wondrously ^H6382 marvelous ^H6381;

And the wisdom ^H2451 of their wise ^H2450 men ^H2450 will perish ^H6,

And the understanding ^H998 of their men ^H995 who ^H995 have ^H995 understanding ^H995 will be concealed ^H5641.”

“Those who err ^H8582 in [fn]mind ^H7307 will know ^H3045 [fn]the truth ^H998,

And those who [fn]criticize ^H7279 will [fn]accept ^H3925 instruction ^H3948.

You will no ^H3808 longer see ^H7200 a fierce ^H3267 people ^H5971,

A people ^H5971 of [fn]unintelligible ^H6012 speech ^H8193 [fn]which no ^H4480 one comprehends ^H8085,

Of a stammering ^H3932 tongue ^H3956 [fn]which no ^H369 one ^H369 understands ^H998.

“The anger ^H639 of the LORD ^H3068 will not turn ^H7725 back ^H7725

Until ^H5704 He has performed ^H6213 and carried ^H6965 out ^H6965 the purposes ^H4209 of His heart ^H3820;

In the last ^H319 days ^H3117 you will clearly ^H998 understand ^H995 it.

When I, Daniel ^H1840, had seen ^H7200 the vision ^H2377, I sought ^H1245 [fn]to understand ^H998 it; and behold ^H2009, standing ^H5975 before ^H5048 me was one [fn]who ^H4758 looked ^H4758 like a man ^H1397.

In the third ^H7969 year ^H8141 of Cyrus ^H3566 king ^H4428 of Persia ^H6539, a [fn]message ^H1697 was revealed ^H1540 to Daniel ^H1840, who ^H834 was named ^H7121 H8034 Belteshazzar ^H1095; and the [fn]message ^H1697 was true ^H571 and it concerned great ^H1419 [fn]conflict ^H6635, but he understood ^H995 the [fn]message ^H1697 and had an understanding ^H998 of the vision ^H4758.
