American Standard Version of 1901
Versliste
At that season Jesus answered and said, I {Or, praise}thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that thou didst hide these things from the wise and understanding, and didst reveal them unto babes:
If thou, {Hebrew: Jah.}Jehovah, shouldest mark iniquities,O Lord, who could stand?
But there is forgiveness with thee,That thou mayest be feared.
The fear of Jehovah is the beginning of wisdom;And the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.
The fear of Jehovah is the instruction of wisdom;And before honor goeth humility.
And unto man he said,Behold, the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom;And to depart from evil is understanding.
The fear of Jehovah is the beginning of wisdom; {Or, Good repute}A good understanding have all they that do {Hebrew: them.}his commandments:His praise endureth for ever.
but refuse profane and old wives' fables. And exercise thyself unto godliness:
Some men's sins are evident, going before unto judgment; and some men also they follow after.
In like manner also {Greek: the works that are good are evident.}there are good works that are evident; and such as are otherwise cannot be hid.
