Looked

Jehovah is in the temple of his holiness; Jehovah, his throne is in the heavens: his eyes behold, his eyelids try the children of men.

Jehovah looketh from the heavens; he beholdeth all the sons of men:

For he hath looked down from the height of his sanctuary; from the heavens hath Jehovah beheld the earth,

For mine eyes are upon all their ways; they are not concealed from my face, neither is their iniquity hidden from before mine eyes.

Can any hide himself in secret places, that I shall not see him? saith Jehovah. Do not I fill the heavens and the earth? saith Jehovah.

Any that

The fear of Jehovah is the beginning of wisdom; a good understanding have all they that do his precepts: his praise abideth for ever.

And ye shall keep and do them; for that will be your wisdom and your understanding before the eyes of the peoples that shall hear all these statutes, and say, Verily this great nation is a wise and understanding people.

And unto man he said, Lo, the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom; and to depart from evil is understanding.

Seek

The wicked saith, in the haughtiness of his countenance, He doth not search out: all his thoughts are, There is no God!

My heart said for thee, Seek ye my face. Thy face, O Jehovah, will I seek.

And thou, Solomon my son, know the God of thy father, and serve him with a perfect heart and with a willing mind; for Jehovah searches all hearts, and discerns all the imaginations of the thoughts. If thou seek him, he will be found of thee; but if thou forsake him, he will cut thee off for ever.

And he went out to meet Asa, and said to him, Hear ye me, Asa, and all Judah and Benjamin: Jehovah is with you while ye are with him; and if ye seek him he will be found of you, but if ye forsake him he will forsake you.

Nevertheless there are good things found in thee; for thou hast put away the Asherahs out of the land, and hast directed thy heart to seek God.

Seek ye Jehovah while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near.
