Tidbits of Wisdom

Just a few reference on Wisdom and Knowledge.  
All these come from the standard works and  can be referenced here
The Standard Works online 

The last is a great item to explore further in the future.  It seems cool, neat and such to be related to Royalty.  In the end is this the wisest type of government?  Definitely has to be explored.

Jacob 6:12
 12 O be awise; what can I say more?

Proverbs 3:13
  13 ¶ aHappy is the man that findeth bwisdom, and the man that getteth cunderstanding.

Proverbs 4:7
 7 aWisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get bunderstanding.

2 Nephi 9:29
  29 But to be alearned is good if they bhearken unto the ccounsels of God. 
 9 Great men are not always wise: neither do the aged understand judgment.

Proverbs 8:11-12
  11 For awisdom is better than brubies; and all the things that may be desired are not to be compared to it.

  12 I wisdom dwell with aprudence, and find out knowledge of witty inventions. 
11 Therefore I will be your king the remainder of my days; nevertheless, let aus appoint bjudges, to judge this people according to our law; and we will newly arrange the affairs of this people, for we will appoint wise men to be judges, that will judge this people according to the commandments of God. 
12 Now it is better that a man should be ajudged of God than of man, for the judgments of God are always just, but the judgments of man are not always just.

13 Therefore, aif it were possible that you could have bjust men to be your kings, who would establish the claws of God, and judge this people according to his commandments, yea, if ye could have men for your kings who would do even as my father dBenjamin did for this people—I say unto you, if this could always be the case then it would be expedient that ye should always have kings to rule over you.
