This Is Why (Proverbs 1:2-6)


This is why.

Learning, as an attentive student,

to words that offer wisdom,

instruction helping you to see,

giving you insight

and the ability to understand.


This is why.

That you may be wise in your ventures,

moral in your dealings.

That you might teach the simple

to be shrewd.

That you might share the knowledge

of your experience,

righteous.


A wise man will listen.

Because he hears,

his knowledge will be multiplied.

And a man who seeks to know

will sit comfortably

at the feet

of those who instruct.


This is why.

To obtain discernment

of the world's darkness

and it's light,

and to gain the knowledge

of the one who speaks.
