Verse six states "for the Lord gives wisdom"
"Knowledge and understanding" "from his mouth come"
"He holds victory in store for the upright"
He shields those who walk in his light
"For he guards the course of the just"
Protecting his faithful ones is a must
"Then you will understand what is right and just and fair"
"For wisdom will enter your heart", do not despair
"Knowledge will be pleasant to your soul"
"Discretion will protect you" without taking a toll
Wisdom is an important and desired trait
But is most valuable when God's word sets it straight
For if we follow God's chosen path
Through our enemies He will cut a swath
The key to me is verse ten, the first part
Reminding us that wisdom must enter our heart
For truth without light is to no avail
And the converse will also surely fail
So please dear God, open my heart
From the Bible, your wisdom do impart
And give me the strength to rely on you
In everything I think, say, and do
