The proverbs of Solomon
son of David, king of Israel:
2 for gaining wisdom and instruction;
for understanding words of insight;
3 for receiving instruction in prudent behavior,
doing what is right and just and fair;
4 for giving prudence to those who are simple,
knowledge and discretion to the young—
5 let the wise listen and add to their learning,
and let the discerning get guidance—
6 for understanding proverbs and parables,
the sayings and riddles of the wise.

7 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge,
but fools despise wisdom and instruction.
but fools despise wisdom and instruction.

《箴言》開宗明義的說到，作者是以色列王大衛兒子所羅門；用意是「使你認識智慧和訓誨，明白格言深奧的含義。」
明白《箴言》有甚麼好處呢？『教導你怎樣過明智的生活，怎樣作誠實、公正、正直的人。』『使無知的人精明，教導年輕人處事有方。』『使才智的人增長學問，使明達的人獲得開導，明白箴言中的隱喻，以及明智的人所提出的問題。』
這告訴我們，讀《箴言》是非常重要的，不是背背句字就好了，要明白其中的道理並且去實踐，更是重要！所以，我們閱讀《箴言》時要禱告聖靈來引導，使我們可以明白並應用來榮耀上帝！
