7 The Yirat Hashem is the reshit da’as,

but fools despise chochmah and musar.

10 The Yirat Hashem is the beginning of chochmah,

and the da’as Kedoshim (knowledge of the Holy One) is binah (understanding).

33 The Yirat Hashem is the musar of chochmah;

and before kavod (honor) is anavah (humility).

10 The fear of Hashem is the reshit chochmah;

seichel tov have all they that live by it;

His tehillah (praise) endureth forever.

12 But where shall chochmah be found?

And where is the makom binah?

13 Enosh knoweth not the price thereof;

neither is it found in the Eretz HaChayyim.

14 The tehom (abyss) saith, It is not in me;

and the yam saith, It is not with me.

15 It cannot be gotten in exchange for fine gold,

neither shall kesef be weighed for the price thereof.

16 It cannot be valued with the fine gold of Ophir,

with the precious onyx, or the sapphire.

17 The zahav and the crystal cannot equal it,

and the exchange of it shall not be for the jewel of gold.

18 Nor shall mention be made of coral or crystal,

for the price of chochmah is above pearls.

19 The chrysolite of Ethiopia shall not equal it,

neither shall it be valued with tahor gold.

20 From where then cometh chochmah?

And where is the makom binah?

21 Seeing it is hidden from the eyes of kol chai,

and concealed from the oph HaShomayim.

22 Abaddon and Mavet say,

We have heard a rumor thereof with our ears.

5 But if any one of you is lacking chochmah (wisdom), let him direct tefillah (prayer) and techinot (petitions) to Hashem, the One whose matanot (gifts) are given generously and without grudging, and chochmah will be given to him.*

5 But if any one of you is lacking chochmah (wisdom), let him direct tefillah (prayer) and techinot (petitions) to Hashem, the One whose matanot (gifts) are given generously and without grudging, and chochmah will be given to him.*

6 For Hashem giveth chochmah;

out of His Peh (mouth) cometh da’as (knowledge) and tevunah (understanding).

6 For Hashem giveth chochmah;

out of His Peh (mouth) cometh da’as (knowledge) and tevunah (understanding).

3 Yea, if thou criest out after binah,

and liftest up thy voice for tevunah (understanding),

5 Then shalt thou understand the Yirat Hashem,

and find the Da’as Elohim.

23 I thank Thee, and praise Thee,

O Thou G-d of my fathers,

Who hast given me chochmah and gevurah,

and hast given unto me da’as now

of what we desired of Thee;

for Thou hast now made known unto us the kingʼs matter.

20 Daniel answered and said:

Baruch hashem Elohim l’olam va’ed;

for chochmah (wisdom) and gevurah (might) are His;

17 As for these four yeladim, G-d gave them knowledge and skill in all sefer and chochmah, and Daniel had understanding in all chazon (visions) and chalomot (dreams).

17 But the chochmah from above is berishonah (in the first place) tehorah (pure), then ohevet shalom (peace-loving), then eidel (gentle) and considerate, then full of rachamim and p’ri tov, and without maso panim and tzevi’ut.

17 But the chochmah from above is berishonah (in the first place) tehorah (pure), then ohevet shalom (peace-loving), then eidel (gentle) and considerate, then full of rachamim and p’ri tov, and without maso panim and tzevi’ut.

13 Who has chochmah and binah among you? Let him show by his hitnahagut hatovah (good conduct) that the ma’asim of him are of the shiflut (lowliness) of chochmah.

6 But we do speak chochmah (wisdom) to the man who is mevugar (mature, grown up), to those with mature ruchaniyut (spirituality in Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach), yet, it is a chochmah (wisdom) not of the Olam Hazeh, neither of the rulers of the Olam Hazeh,* the ones being brought to naught.* 7 But we speak the chochmah of Hashem in a hidden sod (mystery),* which was nigzar merosh (determined from the beginning, preordained, predestined, decided beforehand) by Hashem lifnei yemei haOlam (before the days of eternity) for our kavod (glory);*

23 But, we proclaim Moshiach and nivlato al haEtz (his body on the Tree):* to Jews, a michshol;* to Goyim, narrishkait (foolishness). 24 Yet, to those whom Hashem has given the kri’ah* and summoned, to HaKeru’im (to the Called Ones), both to Yehudim and to Yevanim Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach, the Gevurat Hashem and the Chochmat Hashem. 25 For the so-called "sichlut" (foolishness) of Hashem has more chochmah than Bnei Adam, and the "weakness" of G-d has more koach (power) than Bnei Adam.*

18 Let no one deceive himself: if anyone presumes to be chacham among you in the Olam Hazeh, let him become a kesil (fool), that he may become chacham.*

18 Let no one deceive himself: if anyone presumes to be chacham among you in the Olam Hazeh, let him become a kesil (fool), that he may become chacham.*

2 That their levavot may be given chozek (strength), having been made an aguda of ahavah and all osher (wealth) of the full assurance of binah, resulting in the da’as of the raz of Hashem, namely Moshiach, 3 In whom is nistar (hidden) all the otzarot (treasures) of chochmah and da’as.*

5 Trust in Hashem with all thine lev,

and lean not unto thine own binah (understanding).

6 In all thy drakhim acknowledge Him,

and He shall make yosher thy orkhot (paths).

7 Be not chacham in thine own eyes;

fear Hashem, and depart from rah.

8 I will instruct thee and teach thee in the Derech which thou shalt go;

I will counsel thee with Mine eye.

9 [Yod] The meek will He guide in mishpat;

and the aniyim will He teach His way.

4 [Dalet] Show me Thy ways, Hashem;

teach me Thy paths.

5 [Heh Vav] Lead me in Thy emes, and teach me;

for Thou art the Elohei of my Salvation;

on Thee do I wait kol hayom.

23 The steps of a gever (man) konanu (are ordered, made firm) by Hashem

and He delighteth in his derech.

8 Cause me to hear Thy chesed in the boker;

for in Thee do I trust;

cause me to know the Derech wherein I should walk;

for I lift up my nefesh unto Thee.

10 Teach me to do Retzonecha (Thy will);

for Thou art Elohai;

may Thy Ruach Tov lead me on level ground.

11 Revive me, Hashem, l’ma’an (for the sake of) Thy Shem (Name);

in Thy tzedakah bring my nefesh out of tzoros.

11 Teach me Thy Derech, Hashem,

and lead me in a plain path,

because of mine enemies.

105 Thy word is a ner unto my feet,

ohr unto my path.

105 Thy word is a ner unto my feet,

ohr unto my path.

18 Open Thou mine eyes,

that I may behold nifla’ot out of Thy torah.

130 The petach (entrance, doorway) of Thy words giveth light;

it giveth understanding unto the simple.

1 Blessed is the ish that walketh not

in the Etzah (counsel, scheme) of the Resha’im,

nor standeth in the Derech Chatta’im,

nor sitteth in the Moshav (seat) of the Leitzim (scornful, ones mocking and reviling).

2 But his delight is in the Torat Hashem;

and in His torah doth he meditate yomam v’lailah.

16 Let the dvar of Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach make its mishkan in you richly, in all chochmah and in all Moshiachʼs pnimiyus haTorah (innermost Torah teaching) and words of chizzuk, ministering to one another with Tehillim, shirim, and neshamah niggunim miRuach Hakodesh (soul melodies from the Ruach Hakodesh) with gratitude, singing in your levavot to Hashem.*

22 When thou goest, it shall guide thee;

when thou sleepest, it shall be shomer over thee;

and when thou awakest, it shall talk with thee.

15 Therefore, fier zich (comport oneself) in your derech with a careful walk, not as kesilim (fools) but as chachamim (wise ones), 16 Redeeming the time, because the yamim are ra’im.

20 Hear etzah, and accept musar,

that thou mayest be wise in thy acharit (latter end, future).

20 Hear etzah, and accept musar,

that thou mayest be wise in thy acharit (latter end, future).

8 He that getteth lev* loveth his own nefesh;

he that is shomer over tevunah (understanding) shall find tov.

18 Every plan is established by etzah,

and with tachbulot (guidance) wage milchamah.

6 For by tachbulot (guidance) thou shalt wage thy milchamah (war),

and in a multitude of yo’etz (counselors) there is teshu’ah (victory, safety).

29 He that is slow to wrath

is of rav tevunah (great understanding),

but he that is angrily impulsive

exalteth folly.

10 By zadon (pride) cometh only contention,

but with the teachable is chochmah.

3 He that is shomer over his peh (mouth) guards his nefesh,

but he that openeth wide his sfatayim (lips) shall have ruin.

15 The derech of a fool is yashar (right) in his own eynayim,

but he that payeth heed unto etzah is chacham (wise).

2 When zadon (pride) cometh, then cometh kalon (shame, disgrace),

but with the humble is chochmah.

8 The chacham lev will receive mitzvot,

but one with foolish sfatayim (lips) shall be thrust down.

15 The lev of the prudent acquireth da’as,

and the ozen of the chachamim seeketh da’as.

2 A kesil (fool) hath no delight in tevunah (understanding),

but only in airing out his lev (mind, opinions).

28 Even a fool, when he holdeth his peace, is counted chacham,

and he that shutteth his sfatayim (lips) is esteemed a man of understanding.

5 A chacham (wise person) will hear, and will increase learning,

and a man of understanding shall acquire wise counsel:

5 Walk in chochmah toward outsiders, redeeming the time. 6 May your lashon always be with the Chen v’Chesed Hashem, seasoned with melach (salt), so that you may have da’as how it is necessary for you to answer each one.

5 Walk in chochmah toward outsiders, redeeming the time. 6 May your lashon always be with the Chen v’Chesed Hashem, seasoned with melach (salt), so that you may have da’as how it is necessary for you to answer each one.

23 Whatever you do, be po’alim (workers) who with their neshamah work facing Adoneinu and not Bnei Adam, 24 Having da’as that from Adoneinu you will receive the sachar of the nachalah* (alloted inheritance). Serve Adoneinu Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach.

13 Ashrei (happy) is the man that findeth chochmah,

and the man that getteth tevunah (understanding).

35 For whosoever findeth me findeth Chayyim,

and shall obtain ratzon Hashem.

16 How much better is it to acquire chochmah than gold,

and acquiring binah (understanding) a better choice than kesef!

9 The lev adam plans his derech,

but Hashem directeth his steps.

1 The plans of the lev belong to adam,

and the answer of the lashon is from Hashem.

12 For chochmah is a protective tzel (shade), and kesef is as well; but the advantage of da’as is, that chochmah giveth chayyim (life) to them that possess it.

10 Say thou not, What is the cause that the yamim harishonim were better than these? For it is not because of chochmah that thou dost inquire concerning this.

26 For to the adam that is pleasing in His sight, Hashem gives chochmah, and da’as, and simchah; but to the choteh (sinner) Hashem giveth travail; Hashem giveth the work of gathering and storing up, that Hashem may give to him that pleases HaElohim. This also is hevel and chasing after ruach.

10 Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy koach; for there is no ma’aseh, nor cheshbon, nor da’as, nor chochmah in Sheol, whither thou goest.

9 For as Shomayim is higher than ha’aretz,

so are the darkhei of Me higher than the darkhei of you,

and My machshevot than your machshevot.

8 For My machshevot are not your machshevot,

neither are the darkhei (ways) of you the darkhei of Me, saith Hashem.

28 Hast thou not known?

Hast thou not heard,

that the Elohei Olam, Hashem,

Boreh Ketzot HaAretz (Creator of the ends of the earth),

fainteth not, neither is weary?

There is no searching of His tevunah (understanding, intelligence).

Hast thou not heard,

Boreh Ketzot HaAretz (Creator of the ends of the earth),

4 Adonoi Hashem hath given Me*; Zech.3:8 and Isa 52:13

the leshon limmudim* (learned tongue of disciples),

that I should know how to speak a devar (word, i.e., word of consolation) in season to him that is weary;

He wakeneth baboker baboker (morning by morning),

He wakeneth Mine ozen (ear)

to hear as the limmudim (disciples, those being taught).

1 Woe to them that go down to Mitzrayim for ezrah (help);

and rely on susim,

and trust in merkavot, because they are many;

and in parashim, because they are very strong;

but they look not unto the Kadosh Yisroel,

neither seek Hashem!

2 Yet He also is chacham (wise),

and will bring rah (disaster),

and will not call back His devarim; but will arise against the Bais Mere’im (house of evildoers),

and against the ezrat po’alei aven (the help of them that work iniquity).

29 This also cometh forth from Hashem Tzva’os,

Who is wonderful in etzah, and excellent in wisdom.

2 And the Ruach* of Hashem shall rest upon Him,

the Ruach of Chochmah and Binah,

the Ruach of Etzah (Counsel)* and Gevurah,

the Ruach of Da’as and of the Yir’at Hashem;

3 And His delight shall be in the Yir’at Hashem:

and He shall not judge after the sight of His eyes,

neither reprove after the hearing of His ears:

11 And Hashem shall guide thee tamid,

and satisfy thy nefesh in drought,

and strengthen thy atzmot;

and thou shalt be like a gan raveh (well-watered garden),

and like a motzah mayim (spring of water),

whose mayim fail not.

33 O the depth of the riches and the chochmah (wisdom) and da’as (knowledge) of Hashem. How unfathomable are His mishpatim and unsearchable His ways.

27 to the only Elohim heChacham (only wise G-d), lo HaKavod b’Moshiach Yehoshua leolemei olemim. Omein.

28 And we have da’as that for those who love Hashem everything co-operates toward HaTov for those who are HaKeru’im (the summoned, called ones) according to the etzah (wisdom) of the tochnit Hashem (G-dʼs purposeful and willed plan or goal).*

24 Hashem, how manifold are Thy ma’asim!

In chochmah (wisdom)* hast Thou made them all;

ha’aretz is full of Thy riches.

5 Gadol is Adoneinu, and of rav ko’ach;

to His tevunah (understanding, intelligence) there is no mispar (number, limit).

24 Thou shalt guide me with Thy etzah (counsel),

and afterward take me to kavod (glory).

12 So teach us to number yameinu,

that we may apply levav unto chochmah.

30 The mouth of the tzaddik speaketh chochmah,

and his leshon uttereth mishpat.

4 Delight thyself also in Hashem,

and He shall give thee the desires of thine lev.

8 But as for me, I will come

into Thy Bais in the multitude of Thy chesed;

and in Thy fear will I bow down

toward Thy Heikhal Kodesh.

11 Thou wilt show me the Orach Chayyim (the path of life);

in Thy presence is fulness of joy,

at Thy right hand there are pleasures netzach (for evermore).

9 Hear the Devar Hashem, O ye Goyim,

and preach it in the farthest shores, and say:

He that scattered Yisroel will gather Yisroel,

and He shall be shomer over Yisroel, like a Ro’eh over the Eder thereof.

23 Hashem, I know that the derech of adam (man) is not in himself;

it is not in man that walketh to direct his steps.

12 He hath made eretz by His ko’ach,

He hath established the tevel (world) by His chochmah,

and hath stretched out Shomayim by His understanding.

1 Boast not thyself of yom makhar (tomorrow),

for thou hast no da’as of what a yom may bring forth.

5 Anshei rah understand not mishpat,

but they that seek Hashem understand all things.

20 Now to the One who is able to do exceedingly abundantly, beyond all that we ask or think, according to the ko’ach working in us.* 21 To Him be kavod in the Brit Chadasha Kehillah and in Moshiach Yehoshua, bekhol hadorot l’Olam va’ed. Omein.

1 This is the pa’am hashlishit I am coming to you;* by the PI SHNAYIM SHLOSHAH EDIM* (by the mouth of two or three witnesses), every dvar shall be established.

5 And you have let slip from zikaron (remembrance) the dvar haChizzuk which he speaks to you as banim, My son, do not despise the musar of Hashem, do not lose heart, resent when rebuked by Him; 6 KI ES ASHER YE’EHAV HASHEM YOKHI’ACH (for whom Hashem loves he disciplines), and he punishes ES BEN YIRTZEH (every son he receives).*

8 As to the rest, Achim b’Moshiach, whatever things are emes (truth), nichbad (noble), yashar (straight), tahor (clean), male No’am (full of pleasantness) and tiferet (beauty),* whatever things are commendable, if there is any virtue, if any praise, think about these things.

34 Therefore, do not have a LEV ROGEZ for tomorrow, for makhar (tomorrow) will care for itself. Each day has enough tzoros of its own.

42 The Queen of the South will be made to stand up alive at the Yom HaDin with this generation and will condemn it, for she came from the ends of the earth to listen to the chochmah of Sh’lomo and, hinei, something much greater than Sh’lomo is here.

24 Therefore, everyone who hears these devarim (words) of mine and does them, is like a chacham (wise man) who built his bais (house) upon the Tzur (Rock).

15 For I will give to you a peh (mouth) and chochmah which none of your mitnaggedim will be able to resist or to contradict.

24 Do not judge according to appearance but judge with mishpat tzedek.*

19 Hashem by chochmah hath founded Eretz (Earth);

by tevunah (understanding) hath He established Shomayim.

12 With the ancient ones is chochmah;

and in orech yamim (length of days) is binah (understanding).

13 With Him is chochmah and gevurah;

He hath etzah and understanding.

1 Then Iyov answered and said,

2 I know it is indeed thus,

but how should yitzdak Enosh im El (Man be in the right, justified, before G-d)?

3 If he will contend with Him,

once of a thousand can Man not answer G-d back.

4 G-d is chochom in lev, and mighty in ko’ach;

who hath hardened himself to defy Him and remained unhurt?

8 He hath showed thee, O adam (man), what is tov.

And what doth Hashem require of thee,

but to do mishpat, and ahavat chesed,

and to walk humbly with Eloheicha?

6 And said to the Shofetim, Take heed what ye do, for ye judge not for adam, but for Hashem, Who is with you in the devar mishpat (verdict).

14 Yet you do not even have da’as of what tomorrowʼs "yom" may bring. Look at your life! Are you not an ed (mist), appearing a short time, then indeed disappearing?*
