Proverbs 8:5

8:5 You who are naive, discern ¹  wisdom!

And you fools, understand discernment! ² 

[8:5]  ¹ tn The imperative of בִּין (bin) means “to understand; to discern.” The call is for the simple to understand what wisdom is, not just to gain it.

[8:5]  ² tn Heb “heart.” The noun לֵב (lev, “heart”) often functions metonymically for wisdom, understanding, discernment.
