What "wisdom" in the Bible can be solely attributed to God?

Read the Bible and then read every other religion's text or any philosophical writing, and tell me what wise saying is unique to the Bible and could only have come from divine inspiration. 

A really well thought out and supported answer may cause me to reconsider being an atheist, so choose your responses very carefully.

Update:

After the first eight answers, I'm wondering if anyone knows what wisdom is,  or recognize "divine inspiration" if they were hit over the head with it.

    The incomprehensibility of God could lead to despair or apathy in the quest to know God, but the Bible also teaches that God is knowable. While God can never be exhaustively understood, he can be known truly, personally, and sufficiently. God is personal, has definite characteristics, and has personally revealed himself so that he can be truly known. The multiplication of grace and peace in our lives is dependent on knowing God (2 Pet. 1:2–3), and this knowledge provides sufficient resources for life and for becoming the people God wants us to be.

    I know personally that when in a humbled state, God's wisdom blesses my soul, mind, and heart; as a witness.

    You will find it when you are ready, not before. You're still playing silly pretend games for how many years here now? Maybe you'll grow out of the need for pretend and empty opinion one day. Not much room for wisdom if you can't be honest with yourself, let alone us, or confirm a single fact. You can't even hear, let alone see verifiable truth, as it were. Without truth there is nothing; no relationships or contracts or rights, zero wisdom; it all self-destructs or is a dead end waste of time pointless, missing out; unsupportable, irrational. 

    An awful scenario of waste and chaos and constant questioning and fear of the unknown and constant defense of a non-position or clue; so let's switch gears back to reality that you can actually confirm as true.

    To me wisdom is a measuring stick of our divine nature and is dependent on inner peace. Not the answer to wisdom, but compulsory, like truth.

    What measuring stick can you use, and yours is different than mine, against what group or changing period? For most people here, it is only a distant possibility, dreaded more than desired.

    Sagacity is more than being insightful or inspirational or having mere knowledge, but rather acumen, discernment, foresight and shrewd experience accentuating an empathetic perceptiveness. We all have an inkling of it, yet are all resolved to forget that the desperate clinging to self and the desperate clinging to life are the surest way to eternal death. Man is not yet a finished creation but rather a challenge of the spirit.

    Wisdom is not given, it is achieved. Stripping oneself naked of attachments for a few hesitating steps, we pay for these steps toward the immortals with much suffering and many pangs of loneliness. To open the door to God's ability and divine expression we must establish an inner peace unknown to most of us. If man develops or opens the higher parts of the spirit, God then extends His unifying functions to the affairs of Man's life.

    According to King Solomon, wisdom is gained from God, "For the Lord gives wisdom; from His mouth come knowledge and understanding" Proverbs 2:6. ... There are various verses in Proverbs that contain parallels of what God loves, which is wise, and what God does not love, which is foolish.

    Who but an all-wise God could possibly design such a complex universe on so grand a scale—so meticulously organized; with such delicate balance and interdependence between its myriad parts; and with so much variety and complexity even in its most infinitesimal features down to the atom.

    Science has not begun to discover even the tiniest fraction of all that could conceivably be known about the universe. But every sentient creature who considers creation should be awestruck by one obvious reality: The careful arrangement of the universe reveals the Creator’s unfathomable wisdom.

    Ponder that point some more, and you’ll realize that the wisdom of the Creator must be more vast than the universe itself—infinite wisdom. Indeed, that is precisely what Scripture teaches: “Oh, the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable are His judgments and His ways past finding out!” (Romans 11:33). In Romans 1, the Apostle Paul reminds us that atheism survives only because unrighteous men and women deliberately suppress truth about God that they can easily see all around them. 

    Human wisdom, by contrast, is notoriously frail and fallible. We are easily perplexed by the rudimentary difficulties of everyday life. We desperately need wisdom. Our need for wisdom should motivate us to turn to God--and those who refuse to turn to God have no hope of ever being truly wise. The wisdom we need most cannot be acquired through science, philosophy, or the arts. True wisdom comes from God, by revelation. “If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God” (James 1:5). 

    Why? God's wisdom answers our most basic questions from the origin of life--answers to some of the most important and most basic questions that man cannot answer: How did we get here? Where do I go when I die? What is the meaning of life? What is the reason for my existence? Man nor man's books nor man's puny wisdom can answer these questions and can only offer empty opinions.

    "What wisdom in the Bible can be solely attributed to God?" God’s wisdom is sure and unchanging, in contrast to the theories and speculations of even the smartest scientists or philosophers. 

    Also, God’s wisdom is pure and perfect. Human reasoning is always tainted with sin and foolishness. Moral judgments that rely on human wisdom are downright dangerous. Clearly, the human race in its fallen state is drawn to folly, not wisdom. 

    Theistic evolutionists in part, and atheists as a whole, are based on the assumption that science is the only reliable source of knowledge of the natural world, which means it is regarded as more reliable and authoritative than the Bible in the matters about which it speaks. But if the Bible’s historical data cannot be trusted, then it does not make sense to trust it in matters of faith (cf. John 3:12).

    Here is an example of atheist or theistic evolutionist wisdom: it is based on the assumption that the Creator began the evolutionary process. If this is true, and somewhere during the process the Creator infused some ape-like creature with the image of God (Genesis 1:26–27, 2:7, 5:1–2, Zechariah 12:1), then the Creator must have performed a miracle. Common sense required here to observe yet another fact of creation. Evolution is an add-on; Truth + Fable = LIES.

    The creation of woman cannot be explained by evolutionists; they lack wisdom or even a starting point. If Eve, the “mother of all living” (Genesis 3:20) evolved, who or what kind of thing could gave birth to her, since the Bible clearly reveals that the first woman was not from the animal world (Genesis 2:21–23).

    I've read the Tao and the Upanishads and the Quran, Buddhism, Mohamed was just some dumb guy that wanted to be god, and the rest were profound and useful, not always applicable. Indirectly, the best ones talk about Unity.

    Show me something better than the Bible with more evidence in the integrity of truth. I'm all ears. To deny verifiable truth is the delusion of fools, so says the Bible. Actually it's mine, as evidence. We don't simply practice religion. We become an Ambassador of Christ. Quite a title, huh?

    The authority and freedom of it creates new life by providing an outlet for the new energy from Unity and wisdom of God; the stuff of abundant life. If you're looking for wisdom from fallible man, you're looking in all the wrong places.

    Modern archaeology has challenged the world of education to admit that the Bible is factual. Solid, documented evidence outside the Bible record confirms events and persons that were at one time considered to be suspect or plain false. 

    Yet the fallacy of man's wisdom persists: When a frog turns into a Prince by a magic kiss, we all know that's a fairy tale. But when a frog turns into a Prince slowly, that's modern science (and a result of the fallible wisdom of man and and millions/billions of opinions).

    Absolutely everything in creation from the very large to very small testifies to the orderliness and unity of the universe requiring a Creator. None of it came about by accident. Yet some are too blinded to see verifiable truth in front of their faces, or even look, even when they have no valid alternative. That is the opposite of wisdom. 

    May I offer one piece of wisdom from the Bible "that can solely be attributed to God"? We are created to make a difference. Mathew 5:13 "Let me tell you why you are here. You're here to be salt-seasoning..." Instead of cursing the darkness learn to turn on the light. Trust determines behavior. Countries that do well have a high trust environment. Trust is essential for behavior to be good. People thrive in a trust environment.

    Atheists and people of opinion are constantly trying to fulfill that egoic, vain, emotional need for validation, rather than simply confirming something, obtaining true knowledge and sharing, contributing. Evolve for heavens sake. 

    Think on these things (Thought Life) - Phil 4:8

    "Whatsoever things are true, honest, just, pure, lovely, whatsoever things are of good report, if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things."

    When you have good values on the inside, you need less validation from the outside, like from social media. Critical thinkers and skeptics don’t create answers (scenarios) just to manage their anxiety; and might not "recognize 'divine inspiration' if they were hit over the head with it." 

    Create a trust environment where there is value and others will be drawn to it. Imparting wisdom depends on trust, and trust depends on the value imparted, and in this sense, value is a measure of truth. Be the "salt-seasoning" that has the vision to create value. You'll need a team, nobody succeeds in isolation. Truth in relationship blooms into multiple blossoms. You never lose when you help other people win. You cannot win w/o relationships. Your crew determines your view and keeps in check with reality in truth. Your created reality of value, honest, just, pure, lovely. May I go play with my boats now?

    Fulfilled prophecy is one unique feature of the Bible that is not part of any other religious text. As for wisdom, any good Bible commentary can fill you in on that. Try this one, for starters:   https://books.google.com/books?id=4YFAAAAAIAAJ

    Christians are told in Colossians 2:2-4 that through prayer and being united in love, they can know the mystery of God, namely Christ, in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge. This wisdom comes from above, not below. It is of Heaven, not earthly and of man, but of God. It is gifted to those who ask in humility by the Holy Spirit (Ephesians 1:17). Only the Bible makes those statements.

    Here is a biblical example: "For who has known the mind of the Lord that he may instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ." 1 Corinthians 2:16  The "we" are those indwelt with the Holy Spirit.

    At a much lower level, another answer to your question could be the example of Confucius, who said a few centuries before Jesus walked on Earth, "Do not do to others what you would not have them do to you." Lots of people think he beat Jesus to it (on his Sermon on the Mount) and that Jesus was plagerizing Confucius, but no. Confucius spoke worldly wisdom which was totally negative. Jesus put it in words of heavenly wisdom by saying, "Do to others what you would have them do to you." Spot the critical difference?

    But, a word of warning, no atheist will reconsider being an atheist by any answers given here. That is because conversion to God only happens when a person begins to trust in God's word, and in the actions performed by Jesus Christ. For as long as you have no trust in any God even existing, you will never reconsider your position. No matter what anybody says here, you will argue against it and claim that that does not prove there is a God. Well of course it doesn't! Head knowledge doesn't convert anybody! That's what the Bible shows! You need a heart transplant, spiritually speaking. And that miracle of grace is solely attributable to the God of the Bible.

    There's only one that I can think of off the top of my head, and we can know it's not from any human source because it's the opposite of anything human nature would come up with:

      Followers of Jesus ( and of God the Father ) are to love everyone as themselves, even their enemies, up to and including dying for them rather than retaliate for any perceived injustice.

      Even so, this will not encourage anyone to "not be an atheist" in and of itself.  It's not a recruitment tool. God's equal love for all humanity is though, and it surpasses his willingness to die for everybody, which he did.

    Religion is the study of God's Spiritual Laws. Science is the study of God's Natural Laws. It's all God Stuff. You cannot see God - you can only see what God does.

    Definition of STUDY: effort to acquire knowledge, as by reading, observation, or research (testing).  Moses demanded to see God & God responded as a burning bush that wasn't consumed. Moses demanded to know who God is, and God said, "I am that I am" or more accurately "I will become what I choose to become."  God is fluid, God is more of a verb than a noun. God is whatever you say next when you say, "I AM ___ "    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VGn-4yZFalY

    Jesus is the wisdom of God. And he is Gods only begotten Son. He created everything that exists. That makes him supreme over all creation.

    Colossians 1:15 — Christ is the visible image of the invisible God. He existed before anything was created and is supreme over all creation.

    1 Corinthians 1:24 KJV — But unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ is the power of God, and the wisdom of God.

    Read ....

    Proverbs 8:15-36 KJV — By me kings reign, and princes decree justice. By me princes rule, and nobles, even all the judges of the earth. I love them that love me; and those that seek me early shall find me. Riches and honour are with me; yea, durable riches and righteousness. My fruit is better than gold, yea, than fine gold; and my revenue than choice silver. I lead in the way of righteousness, in the midst of the paths of judgment: That I may cause those that love me to inherit substance; and I will fill their treasures. The LORD possessed me in the beginning of his way, before his works of old. I was set up from everlasting, from the beginning, or ever the earth was. When there were no depths, I was brought forth; when there were no fountains abounding with water. Before the mountains were settled, before the hills was I brought forth: While as yet he had not made the earth, nor the fields, nor the highest part of the dust of the world. When he prepared the heavens, I was there: when he set a compass upon the face of the depth: When he established the clouds above: when he strengthened the fountains of the deep: When he gave to the sea his decree, that the waters should not pass his commandment: when he appointed the foundations of the earth: Then I was by him, as one brought up with him: and I was daily his delight, rejoicing always before him; Rejoicing in the habitable part of his earth; and my delights were with the sons of men. Now therefore hearken unto me, O ye children: for blessed are they that keep my ways. Hear instruction, and be wise, and refuse it not. Blessed is the man that heareth me, watching daily at my gates, waiting at the posts of my doors. For whoso findeth me findeth life, and shall obtain favour of the LORD. But he that sinneth against me wrongeth his own soul: all they that hate me love death.

    No other figure or writing makes such bold claims.

    Its no one else's responsibility to make you a believer. That burden is on you alone.
