Wisdom of Solomon 1:1-16 of 19 (KJV)

Pray for God’s Wisdom and Understanding,
In Jesus name we pray, Amen.

The Book of Wisdomor, Wisdom of Solomon.

{1:1} Love righteousness, ye that be judges of the earth: think of the Lord with a good (heart,) and in simplicity of heart seek him.

{1:2} For he will be found of them that tempt him not; and sheweth himself unto such as do not distrust him.

{1:3} For froward thoughts separate from God: and his power, when it is tried, reproveth the unwise.

{1:4} For into a malicious soul wisdom shall not enter; nor dwell in the body that is subject unto sin.

{1:5} For the holy spirit of discipline will flee deceit, and remove from thoughts that are without understanding, and will not abide when unrighteousness cometh in.

{1:6} For wisdom is a loving spirit; and will not acquit a blasphemer of his words: for God is witness of his reins, and a true beholder of his heart, and a hearer of his tongue.

{1:7} For the Spirit of the Lord filleth the world: and that which containeth all things hath knowledge of the voice.

{1:8} Therefore he that speaketh unrighteous things cannot be hid: neither shall vengeance, when it punisheth, pass by him.

{1:9} For inquisition shall be made into the counsels of the ungodly: and the sound of his words shall come unto the Lord for the manifestation of his wicked deeds.

{1:10} For the ear of jealousy heareth all things: and the noise of murmurings is not hid.

{1:11} Therefore beware of murmuring, which is unprofitable; and refrain your tongue from backbiting: for there is no word so secret, that shall go for nought: and the mouth that belieth slayeth the soul.

{1:12} Seek not death in the error of your life: and pull not upon yourselves destruction with the works of your hands.

{1:13} For God made not death: neither hath he pleasure in the destruction of the living.

{1:14} For he created all things, that they might have their being: and the generations of the world were healthful; and there is no poison of destruction in them, nor the kingdom of death upon the earth:

{1:15} (For righteousness is immortal:)

{1:16} But ungodly men with their works and words called it to them: for when they thought to have it their friend, they consumed to nought, and made a covenant with it, because they are worthy to take part with it.

Thanking God for teaching us his Word, Amen.
