Wisdom's Associates

by | |
Proverbs 8:12-13:
12 "I, wisdom, dwell with prudence, and I find knowledge and discretion.
13 The fear of the LORD is hatred of evil. Pride and arrogance and the way of evil and perverted speech I hate.

Here there is a nice list of wisdom characteristics that come with wisdom: prudent, knowledgeable, use of discretion, fear (reverence for his power), and a strong dislike for all that is ungodly. There is also a list of unwise characteristics: prideful, arrogant, and dishonest speech. Seems obvious when listed, but they don't seem so clear in our actions.
