9 They are all plain to him that understandeth, and right to them that find knowledge.
9 To the discerning all of them are right; they are upright to those who have found knowledge.
9 They are all straight to him who understands, and right to those who find knowledge.
9 You'll recognize this as true - you with open minds; truth-ready minds will see it at once.
9 They are all plain to him who understands, And right to those who find knowledge.
9 My words are plain to anyone with understanding, clear to those with knowledge.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Proverbs 8:9
Commentary on Proverbs 8:1-11
(Read Proverbs 8:1-11)
The will of God is made known by the works of creation, and by the consciences of men, but more clearly by Moses and the prophets. The chief difficulty is to get men to attend to instruction. Yet attention to the words of Christ, will guide the most ignorant into saving knowledge of the truth. Where there is an understanding heart, and willingness to receive the truth in love, wisdom is valued above silver and gold.
