'Discerning' in the Bible

Wisdom is found on the lips of the discerning,but a rod is for the back of the one who lacks sense.

Wisdom resides in the heart of the discerning;she is known even among fools.

A discerning mind seeks knowledge,but the mouth of fools feeds on foolishness.

Even a fool is considered wise when he keeps silent,discerning when he seals his lips. >

Strike a mocker, and the inexperienced learn a lesson;rebuke the discerning, and he gains knowledge.

When a land is in rebellion, it has many rulers,but with a discerning and knowledgeable person, it endures.
