Those who receive the Lord’s commandments will be delivered, but all who are not attentive will stumble and will not be able to raise, because they only thought of doing what they understood to be convenient for them.
Solomon, writer of the book of Proverbs, wise and knowledgeable man, said these inspired words, speaking of all who had a wise heart: They would not stumble because they would first look at the stone before crossing, but those who reject wisdom would fall for ignoring those words that could help them see the obstacle that appeared before them.
Many believe they are the wisest, but they are wrong, because with their own thoughts they fall into the void.
The wise in heart will receive commandments: but a prating fool shall fall.
Proverbs 10:8
