The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge

Proverbs 1:7 (NASB)
The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge;
Fools despise wisdom and instruction.

Proverbs 9:10,11
The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom,
And the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.

For by me your days will be multiplied,
And years of life will be added to you.

Pro 10:27
The fear of the LORD prolongs life,
But the years of the wicked will be shortened.

Pro 14:26, 27
In the fear of the LORD there is strong confidence,
And his children will have refuge.

The fear of the LORD is a fountain of life,
That one may avoid the snares of death.
