Proverbs 1:2-4

The Voice

² So that you would recognize wisdom and value discipline;
    that you would understand insightful teaching
³ And receive wise guidance to live a disciplined life;
    that you would seek justice and have the ability to choose what is right and fair.
⁴ These proverbs teach the naive how to become clever;
    they instruct the young in how to grow in knowledge and live with discretion.
