Proverbs 2
- 1 My son, if you will receive my words, and store up my commandments within you;
- 2 So as to turn your ear to wisdom, and apply your heart to understanding;
- 3 Yes, if you call out for discernment, and lift up your voice for understanding;
- 4 If you seek her as silver, and search for her as for hidden treasures:
- 5 then you will understand the fear of Yahweh, and find the knowledge of God.
- 6 For Yahweh gives wisdom. Out of his mouth comes knowledge and understanding.
- 7 He lays up sound wisdom for the upright. He is a shield to those who walk in integrity;
- 8 that he may guard the paths of justice, and preserve the way of his saints.
- 9 Then you will understand righteousness and justice, equity and every good path.
- 10 For wisdom will enter into your heart. Knowledge will be pleasant to your soul.
- 11 Discretion will watch over you. Understanding will keep you,
- 12 to deliver you from the way of evil, from the men who speak perverse things;
- 13 who forsake the paths of uprightness, to walk in the ways of darkness;
- 14 who rejoice to do evil, and delight in the perverseness of evil;
- 15 who are crooked in their ways, and wayward in their paths:
- 16 To deliver you from the strange woman, even from the foreigner who flatters with her words;
- 17 who forsakes the friend of her youth, and forgets the covenant of her God:
- 18 for her house leads down to death, her paths to the departed spirits.
- 19 None who go to her return again, neither do they attain to the paths of life:
- 20 that you may walk in the way of good men, and keep the paths of the righteous.
- 21 For the upright will dwell in the land. The perfect will remain in it.
- 22 But the wicked will be cut off from the land. The treacherous will be rooted out of it.
