But where can wisdom be found? And where is the place of understanding?

Man does not know its value, nor is it found in the land of the living.

From where then does wisdom come? And where is the place of understanding?

Abaddon and Death say, We have heard a report of it with our ears.

For He looks to the ends of the earth, and sees under the whole heavens,

But there is a spirit in man, and the breath of the Almighty gives him understanding.

if you seek her as silver, and search for her as for hidden treasures,

then you shall understand the fear of Jehovah, and find the knowledge of God.

Now after Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea in the days of Herod the king, behold, wise men from the East came to Jerusalem,

saying, Where is He who has been born King of the Jews? For we have seen His star in the East and have come to do homage to Him.

The queen of the South will rise up in the judgment with this generation and condemn it, for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and behold one greater than Solomon is here.

So he arose and went. And behold, a man of Ethiopia, a eunuch of high office under Candace the queen of the Ethiopians, who had charge of all her treasury, and had come to Jerusalem to do homage,

Then the Spirit said to Philip, Go near and join yourself to this chariot.

And he said, How can I, unless someone guides me? And he summoned Philip to come up and sit with him.

In His humiliation His judgment was taken away, and who will declare His generation? For His life is taken from the earth.

Then Philip opened his mouth, and beginning at this Scripture, preached Jesus to him.

Then Philip said, If you believe with all your heart, it is lawful. And he answered and said, I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God.

Now when they came up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord caught Philip away, so that the eunuch saw him no more; and he went on his way rejoicing.

But the righteousness of faith speaks in this manner, Do not say in your heart, Who will ascend into Heaven? (that is, to bring Christ down)

But what does it say? The Word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart (that is, the Word of Faith which we preach):

If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him.

Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father of Lights, with whom there is no change or shadow of turning.

But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, fair, willing to yield, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality and without hypocrisy.

Then the wrath of Elihu, the son of Barachel the Buzite, of the family of Ram, was kindled against Job; his wrath was kindled because he was justifying his soul more than God.

For Job has said, I am righteous, but the Mighty God has taken away my justice;

Therefore listen to me, you men with heart: far be it from the Mighty God to do wickedness, and from the Almighty to do injustice.

Surely the Mighty God will never do wickedly, nor will the Almighty pervert justice.

He is the Rock, His work is perfect; for all His ways are justice, a Mighty God of truth and without injustice; righteous and upright is He.

For the righteous Jehovah loves righteousness; His face beholds the upright.

Jehovah is righteous in all His ways, and kind in all His works.

Righteous are You, O Jehovah, when I complain to You; yet let me speak with You about Your judgments. Why does the way of the wicked prosper? Why are all those who deceive with treachery at ease?

O Lord, righteousness belongs to You, but to us the shame of face, as it is this day to the men of Judah, and to those living in Jerusalem, and to all Israel, who are near and who are afar in all the lands where You have driven them for their unfaithfulness which they have trespassed against You.

And Jehovah has looked on the evil and has brought it upon us. For Jehovah our God is righteous in all His works which He does. For we did not obey His voice.

whom God set forth as a propitiation through faith in His blood, to give evidence of His righteousness, because in His forbearance God had passed over the sins that were previously committed,

to prove at the present time His righteousness, that He might be just and the justifier of the one who is of the faith of Jesus.

What shall we say then? Is there unrighteousness with God? Let it not be!

And they sing the song of Moses, the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb, saying: Great and marvelous are Your works, Lord God Almighty. Just and true are Your ways, O King of the saints.
