Wisdom Is Better Than Gold

Why is godly wisdom so valuable? It delivers its owners from bad ways and preserves them alive. It has a positive effect on their disposition, speech, and actions.

Wisdom protects from pride

  • A haughty man
    A wise person recognizes that Jehovah is the Source of all wisdom
  • Those who achieve success or who receive more responsibility must especially guard against pride and haughtiness

Wisdom promotes wholesome speech

  • One man talks and another listens
    A wise person uses insight to find the good in others and speaks well of them
  • Wise words are persuasive and sweet like honey, not harsh or confrontational
