28 And he said to the human race,

“The fear of the Lord—that is wisdom,

and to shun evil is understanding.”

28 And unto man he said, Behold, the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom;

And to depart from evil is understanding.

28 And this is what he says to all humanity:

‘The fear of the Lord is true wisdom;

to forsake evil is real understanding.’ ”

28 And to man He said,

‘Behold, the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom,

And to depart from evil is understanding.’ ”

28 Then he said to humans,

‘The fear of the Lord is wisdom;

to stay away from evil is understanding.’ ”

28 And unto man he said,

Behold, the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom;

And to depart from evil is understanding.

28 And unto man he said, Lo, the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom; and to depart from evil is understanding.

28 So he told humans, 

‘The fear of the Lord is wisdom! 

To stay away from evil is understanding.’ ” 

28 He said to mankind,

“The fear of the Lord is this: wisdom.

And to turn from evil is understanding.”

28 And he said to humankind,

‘Truly, the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom;

and to depart from evil is understanding.’ ”

28 And to the human beings he said,

‘Look, the fear of the Lord is wisdom,

and to depart from evil is understanding.’ ”

28 He said to human beings,

‘Have respect for me. That will prove you are wise.

Avoid evil. That will show you have understanding.’ ”

28 “And to man He said, ‘Behold, the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom;

And to depart from evil is understanding.’ ”
