Proverbs: Chapter 2 (douayrheims)

Proverbs 2
- 1 My son, if thou wilt receive my words, and wilt hide my commandments with thee,
- 2 That thy ear may hearken to wisdom: incline thy heart to know prudence.
- 3 For if thou shalt call for wisdom, and incline thy heart to prudence:
- 4 If thou shalt seek her as money, and shalt dig for her as for a treasure:
- 5 Then shalt thou understand the fear of the Lord, and shalt find the knowledge of God:
- 6 Because the Lord giveth wisdom: and out of his mouth cometh prudence and knowledge.
- 7 He wilt keep the salvation of the righteous, and protect them that walk in simplicity,
- 8 Keeping the paths of justice, and guarding the ways of saints.
- 9 Then shalt thou understand justice, and judgment, and equity, and every good path.
- 10 If wisdom shall enter into thy heart, and knowledge please thy soul:
- 11 Counsel shall keep thee, and prudence shall preserve thee,
- 12 That thou mayst be delivered from the evil way, and from the man that speaketh perverse things:
- 13 Who leave the right way, and walk by dark ways:
- 14 Who are glad when they have done evil, and rejoice in the most wicked things:
- 15 Whose ways are perverse, and their steps infamous.
- 16 That thou mayst be delivered from the strange woman, and from the stranger, who softeneth her words;
- 17 And forsaketh the guide of her youth,
- 18 And hath forgotten the covenant of her God: for her house inclineth unto death, and her paths to hell.
- 19 None that go in unto her, shall return again, neither shall they take hold of the paths of life.
- 20 That thou mayst walk in a good way: and mayst keep the paths of the just.
- 21 For they that are upright, shall dwell in the earth; and the simple shall continue in it.
- 22 But the wicked shall be destroyed from the earth: and they that do unjustly, shall be taken away from it.
