Proverbs 9:10-12

International Standard Version

¹⁰ The fear of the Lord is where wisdom begins,
    and knowing holiness^[a] demonstrates understanding.
¹¹ For because of me you will live a long life,
    and years will be added to your life.
¹² If you are wise,
    your wisdom will assist you.
If you mock,
    you alone will be held responsible.
