So give your servant a discerning heart to govern your people and to distinguish between right and wrong. For who is able to govern this great people of yours?”

Give your servant therefore an understanding mind to govern your people, that I may discern between good and evil, for who is able to govern this your great people?”

If any of you needs wisdom, you should ask God for it. He will give it to you. God gives freely to everyone and doesn’t find fault.

Solid food is for those who are grown up. They have trained themselves to tell the difference between good and evil. That shows they have grown up.

“ So now I’m saying,‘ May what you have told me prevent that man from doing what he wants. You are like an angel of God. You know what is good and what is evil. May the Lord your God be with you.’ ”

Call out for the ability to be wise. Cry out for understanding.Look for it as you would look for silver. Search for it as you would search for hidden treasure.Then you will understand how to have respect for the Lord. You will find out how to know God.The Lord gives wisdom. Knowledge and understanding come from his mouth.He stores up success for honest people. He is like a shield to those who live without blame.He guards the path of those who are honest. He watches over the way of his faithful ones.You will understand what is right and honest and fair. You will understand the right way to live.

I can do nothing by myself. I judge only as I hear. And my judging is fair. I do not try to please myself. I try to please the one who sent me.

God, give the king the ability to judge fairly. He is your royal son. Help him to do what is right.May he rule your people in the right way. May he be fair to those among your people who are hurting.

The Spirit of the Lord will rest on that Branch. The Spirit will help him to be wise and understanding. The Spirit will help him make wise plans and carry them out. The Spirit will help him know the Lord and have respect for him.The Branch will take delight in respecting the Lord. He will not judge things only by the way they look. He won’t make decisions based simply on what people say.He will always do what is right when he judges those who are in need. He’ll be completely fair when he makes decisions about poor people. When he commands that people be punished, it will happen. When he orders that evil people be put to death, it will take place.

It is much better to get wisdom than gold. It is much better to choose understanding than silver.

May the Lord give you good sense. May he give you understanding when he makes you king over Israel. Then you will keep the law of the Lord your God.

In ourselves we are not able to claim anything for ourselves. The power to do what we do comes from God.

Give me wisdom and knowledge. Then I’ll be able to lead these people. Without your help, who would be able to rule this great nation of yours?”

Help me understand your law so that I may follow it. I will obey it with all my heart.

Your covenant laws are always right. Help me to understand them. Then I will live. Qoph

So don’t be foolish. Instead, understand what the Lord wants.

Moses spoke to the Lord. He said,“ Lord, I’ve never been a good speaker. And I haven’t gotten any better since you spoke to me. I don’t speak very well at all.”The Lord said to him,“ Who makes human beings able to talk? Who makes them unable to hear or speak? Who makes them able to see? Who makes them blind? It is I, the Lord.Now go. I will help you speak. I will teach you what to say.”But Moses said,“ Lord, please send someone else to do it.”

The Lord has made two things. He has made ears that hear. He has also made eyes that see.

People are wise and understanding when they think about the way they live. But people are foolish when their foolish ways trick them.

A certain man lived in that city. He was poor but wise. He used his wisdom to save the city. But no one remembered that poor man.So I said,“ It’s better to be wise than to be powerful.” But people look down on the poor man’s wisdom. No one pays any attention to what he says.People should listen to the quiet words of those who are wise. That’s better than paying attention to the shouts of a ruler of foolish people.Wisdom is better than weapons of war. But one sinner destroys a lot of good.

“ You are my Lord and King,” I said.“ I don’t know how to speak. I’m too young.”

Blessed is the one who finds wisdom. Blessed is the one who gains understanding.Wisdom pays better than silver does. She earns more than gold does.She is worth more than rubies. Nothing you want can compare with her.Long life is in her right hand. In her left hand are riches and honor.Her ways are pleasant ways. All her paths lead to peace.She is a tree of life to those who take hold of her. Those who hold her close will be blessed.

You made me and formed me with your own hands. Give me understanding so that I can learn your commands.

But the wisdom that comes from heaven is pure. That’s the most important thing about it. And that’s not all. It also loves peace. It thinks about others. It obeys. It is full of mercy and good fruit. It is fair. It doesn’t pretend to be what it is not.

But Moses spoke to God.“ Who am I that I should go to Pharaoh?” he said.“ Who am I that I should bring the Israelites out of Egypt?”God said,“ I will be with you. I will give you a sign. It will prove that I have sent you. When you have brought the people out of Egypt, all of you will worship me on this mountain.”

Wisdom is a good thing. It’s like getting a share of the family wealth. It benefits those who live on this earth.

The person without the Spirit doesn’t accept the things that come from the Spirit of God. These things are foolish to them. They can’t understand them. In fact, such things can’t be understood without the Spirit’s help.The person who has the Spirit can judge all things. But no human being can judge those who have the Spirit. It is written,

But John tried to stop him. So he told Jesus,“ I need to be baptized by you. So why do you come to me?”

All the Israelites heard about the decision the king had given. That gave them great respect for him. They saw that God had given him wisdom. They knew that Solomon would do what was right and fair when he judged people.

“ I baptize you with water, calling you to turn away from your sins. But after me, someone is coming who is more powerful than I am. I’m not worthy to carry his sandals. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire.

To those who are dying, we are the smell of death. To those who are being saved, we are the perfume of life. Who is able to do this work?

Help my son Solomon serve you with all his heart. Then he will keep your commands and rules. He will do what you require. He’ll do everything to build the grand and wonderful temple I’ve provided for.”

Then you will be able to know what is best. Then you will be pure and without blame for the day that Christ returns.

Wisdom makes one wise person more powerful than ten rulers in a city.
