Proverbs
1:11-16 – If they
say, “Come along with us; let’s lie in wait for innocent blood,
let’s ambush some harmless soul; let’s swallow them alive, like the
grave, and whole, like those who go down to the pit; we
will get all sorts of valuable things and fill our houses with plunder;
cast lots with us; we will all share the loot”—my son, do
not go along with them, do not set foot on their paths;
for their feet rush into evil, they are swift to shed blood.
Job 28:18 – Coral and jasper are not
worthy of mention; the price of wisdom is beyond rubies.
Proverbs 2:18 – Surely her house leads down to death and her paths to
the spirits of the dead.
Application:
- · The book of Proverbs teaches that wisdom brings the greatest riches people could ever gain.
- · The “wife of noble character”, who fears the Lord and is therefore wise is of value.
- · A life of immorality leads to the destruction and death of all who are involved.
