Proverbs 18:15
King James Version
“The heart of the prudent getteth knowledge; and the ear of the wise seeketh knowledge.”
Context
12Before destruction the heart of man is haughty, and before honour humility.
13He that answereth a matter before he heareth it folly and shame unto him.
14The spirit of a man will sustain his infirmity; but a wounded spirit who can bear?
15The heart of the prudent getteth knowledge; and the ear of the wise seeketh knowledge.
16A man’s gift maketh room for him, and bringeth him before great men.
17first in his own cause just; but his neighbour cometh and searcheth him.
18The lot causeth contentions to cease, and parteth between the mighty.
