Understanding

Call to me and I will answer you
And tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know
The beginning of wisdom is this: Get wisdom
Though it cost all you have, get understanding

Whoever is patient has great understanding
But one who is quick-tempered displays folly
Many are the plans in a person's heart
But it is the Lord’s purpose that prevails

The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom
And knowledge of the Holy One is understanding
You have searched me, Lord, and you know me
You know when I sit and when I rise
You perceive my thoughts from afar

Whoever is patient has great understanding
But one who is quick-tempered displays folly
Many are the plans in a person's heart
But it is the Lord's purpose that prevails
