Proverbs 8:5

Context

8:5 You who are naive, discern 1  wisdom!

And you fools, understand discernment! 2 

1 tn The imperative of בִּין (bin) means “to understand; to discern.” The call is for the simple to understand what wisdom is, not just to gain it.

2 tn Heb “heart.” The noun לֵב (lev, “heart”) often functions metonymically for wisdom, understanding, discernment.
