For wisdom is more precious than rubies, and nothing you desire can compare with her.

Pride only breeds quarrels, but wisdom is found in those who take advice.

The quiet words of the wise are more to be heeded than the shouts of a ruler of fools.

For the wisdom of this world is foolishness in God's sight. As it is written: "He catches the wise in their craftiness."

Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom, and as you sing psalms, hymns and spiritual songs with gratitude in your hearts to God.
