Deuteronomy

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

Keep therefore the words of this covenant, and do them, that ye may prosper in all that ye do.

And the Lord shall make thee the head, and not the tail; and thou shalt be above only, and thou shalt not be beneath; if that thou hearken unto the commandments of the Lord thy God, which I command thee this day, to observe and to do them:

Wherefore be ye not unwise, but understanding what the will of the Lord is.

The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom: a good understanding have all they that do his commandments: his praise endureth for ever.
