Bybel in Afrikaans (1983-vertaling)

Om die Here te dien, dit is wysheid, om die kwaad te vermy, dit is insig.

Job 28:28

Is daar 'n wyse en verstandige mens onder julle? Dan moet hy dit toon deur sy goeie gedrag en deur dade wat van nederigheid en wysheid getuig.

Jakobus 3:13

Job 28 (Bybel in Afrikaans (1983-vertaling))

25 Toe Hy die krag van die wind bepaal het en die waters uitgemeet het,
26 toe Hy vir die reën reëls gemaak het en 'n pad vir die weerlig aangewys het,
27 toe het Hy die wysheid gesien en daarvan vertel, toe het Hy dit vasgestel en deurvors.
28 En Hy het vir die mens gesê: Om die Here te dien, dit is wysheid, om die kwaad te vermy, dit is insig."

Jakobus 3 (Bybel in Afrikaans (1983-vertaling))

10 Uit dieselfde mond kom lof en vloek. My broers, so moet dit nie wees nie.
11 'n Fontein laat tog nie uit dieselfde oog vars en brak water opborrel nie.
12 'n Vyeboom, my broers, kan tog nie olywe dra nie, of 'n druiwestok vye nie. 'n Brak fontein kan mos nie vars water gee nie!
13 Is daar 'n wyse en verstandige mens onder julle? Dan moet hy dit toon deur sy goeie gedrag en deur dade wat van nederigheid en wysheid getuig.
14 Terwyl daar bittere naywer en selfsug in julle harte is, moet julle nie daarmee spog dat julle wysheid het nie, want dan praat julle nie die waarheid nie.
15 Dié soort wysheid kom nie van Bo nie, maar is aards, sinlik, demonies,
16 want waar daar naywer en selfsug is, kom daar wanorde en allerhande gemene dade.

English Standard Version

Behold, the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom, and to turn away from evil is understanding.

Job 28:28

Who is wise and understanding among you? By his good conduct let him show his works in the meekness of wisdom.

James 3:13

Job 28 (English Standard Version)

25 When he gave to the wind its weight
and apportioned the waters by measure,
26 when he made a decree for the rain
and a way for the lightning of the thunder,
27 then he saw it and declared it;
he established it, and searched it out.
28 And he said to man,
‘Behold, the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom,
and to turn away from evil is understanding.’”

Jakobus 3 (English Standard Version)

10 From the same mouth come blessing and cursing. My brothers, these things ought not to be so.
11 Does a spring pour forth from the same opening both fresh and salt water?
12 Can a fig tree, my brothers, bear olives, or a grapevine produce figs? Neither can a salt pond yield fresh water.
13 Who is wise and understanding among you? By his good conduct let him show his works in the meekness of wisdom.
14 But if you have bitter jealousy and selfish ambition in your hearts, do not boast and be false to the truth.
15 This is not the wisdom that comes down from above, but is earthly, unspiritual, demonic.
16 For where jealousy and selfish ambition exist, there will be disorder and every vile practice.
