fools despise wisdom ....proverbs 1.7

 Proverbs 1:1   The proverbs of Solomon the son of David, king of Israel;
  Proverbs 1:2   To know wisdom and instruction; to perceive the words of understanding;
  Proverbs 1:3   To receive the instruction of wisdom, justice, and judgment, and equity;
  Proverbs 1:4   To give subtilty to the simple, to the young man knowledge and discretion.
  Proverbs 1:5   A wise man will hear, and will increase learning; and a man of understanding shall attain unto wise counsels:
  Proverbs 1:6   To understand a proverb, and the interpretation; the words of the wise, and their dark sayings.
  Proverbs 1:7   The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction.
  Proverbs 1:8   My son, hear the instruction of thy father, and forsake not the law of thy mother:
  Proverbs 1:9   For they shall be an ornament of grace unto thy head, and chains about thy neck.


WISDOM LETTUCE ATTEND

Let us have our fill of costly wine and perfumes,

and let no springtime blossom pass us by;

8let us crown ourselves with rosebuds before they wither.

9Let no meadow be free from our wantonness;

everywhere let us leave tokens of our merriment,

for this is our portion, and this our lot.^e

10Let us oppress the righteous poor;

let us neither spare the widow

nor revere the aged for hair grown white with time.^f

11But let our strength be our norm of righteousness;

for weakness proves itself useless.

12^* Let us lie in wait for the righteous one, because he is annoying to us;

he opposes our actions,

Reproaches us for transgressions of the law^*

and charges us with violations of our training.^g
