The Pursuit of Wisdom and Justice
Proverbs 18:1-5
1
¶ Through desire a man, having separated himself, seeketh and intermeddleth with all wisdom.
2
¶ A fool hath no delight in understanding, but that his heart may discover itself.
3
¶ When the wicked cometh, then cometh also contempt, and with ignominy reproach.
4
¶ The words of a man's mouth are as deep waters, and the wellspring of wisdom as a flowing brook.
5
¶ It is not good to accept the person of the wicked, to overthrow the righteous in judgment.
