{{cquote|The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and instruction. – <small>Proverbs 1:7, NKJV</small>}}

{{cquote|Wisdom calls aloud outside; She raises her voice in the open squares.<sup>(21)</sup> She cries out in the chief concourses, At the openings of the gates in the city She speaks her words: <sup>(22)</sup> “How long, you simple ones, will you love simplicity? For scorners delight in their scorning,
And fools hate knowledge. <sup>(23)</sup> Turn at my rebuke; Surely I will pour out my spirit on you; I will make my words known to you. – <small>Proverbs 1:20-23, NKJV</small><br />
...whoever listens to me will dwell safely,
And will be secure, without fear of evil.” – <small>Proverbs 1:33, NKJV</small>}}
