"Keep them and do them, for that will be your wisdom and your understanding in the sight of the peoples, who, when they hear all these statutes, will say, ‘Surely this great nation is a wise and understanding people.’ 7 For what great nation is there that has a god so near to it as the Lord our God is to us, whenever we call upon him? 8 And what great nation is there, that has statutes and rules so righteous as all this law that I set before you today?" (ESV)
When God's people are diligent in living out the commandments of God their actions will be their wisdom and understanding in the sight of surrounding culture. When the surrounding culture hears of these commandments and they see them being lived out they will see God's people as having wisdom and understanding because they will see that with godly living there is blessing.
