Wisdom (חָכְמָה ḥâḵemâ)

I, Wisdom, dwell in counsel, and I am inside learned thoughts. The Lord possessed me in the beginning of his ways, before he made anything, from the beginning. (Pro 8:12.22)

אֲֽנִי־חָכְמָה שָׁכַנְתִּי עָרְמָה וְדַעַת מְזִמּוֹת אֶמְצָֽא יְֽהוָה קָנָנִי רֵאשִׁית דַּרְכּוֹ קֶדֶם מִפְעָלָיו מֵאָֽז׃

Ego sapientia habito in consilio, et eruditis intersum cogitationibus. Dominus possedit me in initio viarum suarum, antequam quidquam faceret a principio.

Wisdom has always been valuable, even though it is still underestimated. From the very morning it is ready to go on a journey with us and accompany us constantly. However, it is a demanding partner. The opposite side of wisdom is stupidity. You also need to notice it so as not to succumb to its suggestions.
Today is the feast of Our Lady of Czestochowa. It is about Her that we say: Wise Virgin! The Most Holy Virgin Mary is Wisdom in human form. Let us walk today in Her presence.
