Proverbs 15:33

Especially, we shall learn to be wise, if we respect God. Wisdom is God’s gift to us. We must respect God. This is the first and most important lesson in wisdom (Proverbs 1:7).

People want to receive honour. But many people do not want to be humble. We need to be humble, because we need to learn from God. We also need to learn from other people. If we are humble, then God will be pleased with us. God gives honour to humble people.

If we are humble, then the result is honour.

This is the first of a series of proverbs (wise words) about God. This series continues in the next chapter.
