Proverbs 1 KJV
Proverbs
Proverbs is a book of wisdom that is relatively short (31 chapters). It is an excellent resource for those who want to learn about the Bible and wisdom but don't know where to start.
Various proverbs
In the first chapter you'll find 13 different sayings. They are categorized into three groups—Short Sayings, Wise Sayings, and Words of the Wise—and will leave you with important insight about life simply: to live well, you must do what is right, and to do what is right, you must be wise.
Being wise
The wise person is one who "fears the Lord" (Proverbs 1:7), meaning that his basic philosophy of life revolves around an understanding of God and His will. Having this kind of outlook implies that one has given their life to God as a gift, frees them from being dependent on the material things in life.
Valuable Proverbs
The Holy Bible book of Proverbs is some of our most valuable and enduring pieces of wisdom. The ancient Hebrew sages were a wise lot, and they didn't miss a trick when it came to telling it like it was. Ready to hear what they have to say? Here are some of the most insightful proverbs from—the first book in the collection that bears its name.
"A good name is to be chosen rather than great riches, and loving favor is better than silver or gold." (Proverbs 22:1)
"A fool finds no pleasure in understanding but delights in airing his own opinions." (Proverbs 18:2)
"When pride comes, then comes disgrace, but with the humble is wisdom." (Proverbs 11:2)
There are many other exciting sayings just like these that offer invaluable guidance and insight into how we can make our lives meaningful. Proverbs 1 is particularly insightful because it allows us to experience our emotions. We don't have to ignore or suppress the various feelings we have, even if those feelings are uncomfortable or painful. Instead, we can acknowledge them, learn from them, and let them pass entirely through us while learning something valuable.

There is a reason why wisdom is considered one of the most valuable things in life-its it makes all things possible. Today take the time to search through this book of wise sayings, and you'll be able to make things happen in your life. It's full of advice that will help you overcome every obstacle in your way!
