Proverbs 9:10-12

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹⁰ The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is prudence.

¹¹ For by me shall thy days be multiplied, and years of life shall be added to thee.

¹² If thou be wise, thou shalt be so to thyself: and if a scorner, thou alone shalt bear the evil.
