The hoary head {is} a crown of glory, {if} it be found in the way of righteousness.

With the ancient {is} wisdom; and in length of days understanding.

For when for the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need that one teach you again which {be} the first principles of the oracles of God; and are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat.

For enquire, I pray thee, of the former age, and prepare thyself to the search of their fathers:

And king Rehoboam consulted with the old men, that stood before Solomon his father while he yet lived, and said, How do ye advise that I may answer this people?

Come, ye children, hearken unto me: I will teach you the fear of the LORD.

The proverbs of Solomon the son of David, king of Israel;

With the ancient {is} wisdom; and in length of days understanding.

And king Rehoboam took counsel with the old men that had stood before Solomon his father while he yet lived, saying, What counsel give ye {me} to return answer to this people?

Wherefore, brethren, look ye out among you seven men of honest report, full of the Holy Ghost and wisdom, whom we may appoint over this business.

And king Rehoboam consulted with the old men, that stood before Solomon his father while he yet lived, and said, How do ye advise that I may answer this people?

No doubt but ye {are} the people, and wisdom shall die with you.

Shall not they teach thee, {and} tell thee, and utter words out of their heart?

Knowest thou {not} this of old, since man was placed upon earth,

I understand more than the ancients, because I keep thy precepts.
