Those Who Get Wisdom

I ran across this scripture about wisdom and it's interesting to know that when we seek wisdom, it's loving ourself. Wisdom is in the pages of the Bible and God gives us wisdom when we ask for it. I need this and I need to love myself enough to pursue this....simply sitting down and reading the Bible is going to give me wisdom and help me live my life successfully. KL

Check out this scripture in different versions of the Bible.

Proverbs 19:8

Those who acquire good sense love themselves; those who keep understanding find success.

(CEB)

To acquire wisdom is to love oneself; people who cherish understanding will prosper.

(NLT)

Grow a wise heart - you'll do yourself a favor; keep a clear head - you'll find a good life. 
(MSG)

Those who get wisdom love their own lives; those who cherish understanding will soon prosper.

(TNIV)

He who gets wisdom loves his own soul; He who keeps understanding will find good. 
(NKJV)

Anyone who gets wisdom loves himself. Anyone who values understanding succeeds.

(NIRV)
