There are a lot of nuggets in them. What stands out to me:
1. fear of the Lord is the foundation of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and discipline (1:7). Relatedly, God is the source of wisdom, knowledge, and understanding. (2:6).
2. Part of wisdom is seeking wisdom.
3. The first listed advice after listening to God/your parents is to not commit murder
4. A lot of the opening chapters of proverbs focus on listening to your parents and humility to God,
5. If we honor God with the best of our material possessions, God will bless us with material possessions. (3:9-10).
