SCRIPTURE

"It is as sport to a fool to do wickedness; And [so is] wisdom to a man of understanding. The fear of the wicked, it shall come upon him; And the desire of the righteous shall be granted. When the whirlwind passeth, the wicked is no more; But the righteous is an everlasting foundation. As vinegar to the teeth, and as smoke to the eyes, So is the sluggard to them that send him." — Proverbs 10:23-26 (ASV)

The wisdom God gives renders a man fit for his station. Everyone who finds the benefit of the right answer will be attached to the one who gave it.
