    Proverbs 2:2, ". . . So that thou incline thine ear unto wisdom, and apply thine heart to understanding; . . ."

    Proverbs 3:13, "Happy is the man that findeth wisdom, and the man that getteth understanding."

    Proverbs 3;19, "The LORD by wisdom hath founded the earth; by understanding hath he established the heavens."

    Proverbs 4:7, "Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding."

    Proverbs 7:4, "Say unto wisdom, Thou art my sister; and call understanding thy kinswoman: . . ."

    Proverbs 8:12-14, "I wisdom dwell with prudence, and find out knowledge of witty inventions. The fear of the LORD is to hate evil: pride, and arrogancy, and the evil way, and the froward mouth, do I hate. Counsel is mine, and sound wisdom: I am understanding; I have strength.

    Proverbs 8:14-22, ". . . I am understanding; I have strength. . . . The LORD possessed me in the beginning of his way, before his works of old."

    Wisdom when personified is simply a personification of an attribute of God. To live with wisdom is to be related to wisdom, i.e. another facet, such as prudence, knowledge and discretion.

    The one Eternal Spirit, Yahweh, had these attributes before He created the heavens and the earth.
