1:1 The parables of Solomon, the son of David, king of Israel. 1:2 To know wisdom, and instruction:
1:3 To understand the words of prudence: and to receive the instruction of doctrine, justice, and judgment, and equity:
1:4 To give subtilty to little ones, to the young man knowledge and understanding. 1:5 A wise man shall hear and shall be wiser: and he that understandeth, shall possess governments.
