(Pro 15:2 KJV) The tongue of the wise useth knowledge aright: but the mouth of fools poureth out foolishness.
Although both of my regular translations stated the first part of this verse well, Moffett has an interesting insight. He says,
“Knowledge distills from wise discourse”
What that tells me is that I can learn not just because I use knowledge myself but because I listen to others. It means that I am capable of dialoguing with other people and gaining from their wisdom. I process what I hear through the wealth of knowledge and experience that I have.
So? Listen. Think. Remember. And grow in wisdom.
