Solomon quotes

A wise son makes a glad father, But a foolish son is the grief of his mother. (Solomon)
In much wisdom is much grief: and he that increaseth knowledge increaseth sorrow.
Solomon
What has been will be again, what has been done will be done again; there is nothing new under the sun.
Solomon
It is the glory of God to conceal a thing: but the honour of kings is to search out a matter.
Solomon
I set my mind to seek and explore by wisdom concerning all that has been done under heaven. It is a grievous task which God has given to the sons of men to be afflicted with.
Solomon
Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man. For God shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil.
Solomon
And also to the alien, who is not of Thy people Israel, but comes from a distant land on account of Thy fame; for hearing of Thy great name and Thy strong hand, and Thine outstretched arm, he comes to this house to pray... do Thou listen in the heavens, the place where Thou dwellest, and perform all that the alien begs of Thee, so that all the peoples of the earth may know Thy name, to fear Thee like Thine own people Israel, and to know that Thy name is proclaimed over this house that I have built.
Solomon
Who is like the wise man? Who knows the solution to a problem? A man's wisdom lights up his face and softens his stern appearance. I say: "Obey the king's orders out of regard for the oath to God. Do not rush to depart from his presence. Do not take a stand for anything bad; for he can do whatever he pleases, because the word of the king is absolute; who can say to him, ‘What are you doing?
Solomon
It is better to be poor and walk in integrity than to be stupid and speak lies.
Solomon
Hear counsel, and receive instruction, that thou mayest be wise in thy latter end.
Solomon
The insight of a man certainly slows down his anger, and it is beauty on his part to pass over transgression. (Solomon)
The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction.
Solomon
Better is the poor that walketh in his integrity, than he that is perverse in his lips, and is a fool.
Solomon
But the souls of the righteous are in the hand of God, and no torment will ever touch them.
Solomon
A friend loveth at all times, and a brother is born for adversity.
Solomon
As iron sharpens iron, so a friend sharpens a friend.
Solomon
In the day of prosperity be joyful, but in the day of adversity consider.
Solomon
All the rivers run into the sea; yet the sea is not full.
Solomon
The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom.
Solomon
Who is the wise man? He who sees what's going to be born.
Solomon
Answer not a fool according to his folly,lest thou also be like unto him. (Solomon)
A good name is better than precious ointment.
Solomon
Kindness and faithfulness keep a king safe, through kindness his throne is made secure.
Solomon
Happy is the man that findeth wisdom, and the man that getteth understanding.
Solomon
Start with God - the first step in learning is bowing down to God; only fools thumb their noses at such wisdom and learning.
