Proverbs 17:24

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

Wisdom is before him that hath understanding; but the eyes of a fool are in the ends of the earth.

A scoffer seeks wisdom, and finds it not: but knowledge is easy unto him that understands.

The heart of him that has understanding seeks knowledge: but the mouth of fools feeds on foolishness.

The wise man's eyes are in his head; but the fool walks in darkness: and I myself perceived also that one fate happens to them all.

Who is as the wise man? and who knows the interpretation of a thing? a man's wisdom makes his face to shine, and the hardness of his face is changed.

If any man will do his will, he shall know of the doctrine, whether it be of God, or whether I speak of myself.

Will you set your eyes upon that which is not? for riches certainly make themselves wings; they fly away as an eagle toward heaven.

Turn away my eyes from beholding vanity; and revive me in your way.

Better is the sight of the eyes than the wandering of the desire: this is also vanity and grasping after the wind.

For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.

They are all plain to him that understands, and right to them that find knowledge.
