Propverbs: 2
Pr:2:1: My son, if thou wilt receive my words, and hide my commandments with thee;
Pr:2:2: So that thou incline thine ear unto wisdom, and apply thine heart to understanding;
Pr:2:3: Yea, if thou criest after knowledge, and liftest up thy voice for understanding;
Pr:2:4: If thou seekest her as silver, and searchest for her as for hid treasures;
Pr:2:5: Then shalt thou understand the fear of the LORD, and find the knowledge of God.
Pr:2:6: For the LORD giveth wisdom: out of his mouth cometh knowledge and understanding.
Pr:2:7: He layeth up sound wisdom for the righteous: he is a buckler to them that walk uprightly.
Pr:2:8: He keepeth the paths of judgment, and preserveth the way of his saints.
Pr:2:9: Then shalt thou understand righteousness, and judgment, and equity; yea, every good path.
Pr:2:10: When wisdom entereth into thine heart, and knowledge is pleasant unto thy soul;
Pr:2:11: Discretion shall preserve thee, understanding shall keep thee:
Pr:2:12: To deliver thee from the way of the evil man, from the man that speaketh froward things;
Pr:2:13: Who leave the paths of uprightness, to walk in the ways of darkness;
Pr:2:14: Who rejoice to do evil, and delight in the frowardness of the wicked;
Pr:2:15: Whose ways are crooked, and they froward in their paths:
Pr:2:16: To deliver thee from the strange woman, even from the stranger which flattereth with her words;
Pr:2:17: Which forsaketh the guide of her youth, and forgetteth the covenant of her God.
Pr:2:18: For her house inclineth unto death, and her paths unto the dead.
Pr:2:19: None that go unto her return again, neither take they hold of the paths of life.
Pr:2:20: That thou mayest walk in the way of good men, and keep the paths of the righteous.
Pr:2:21: For the upright shall dwell in the land, and the perfect shall remain in it.
Pr:2:22: But the wicked shall be cut off from the earth, and the transgressors shall be rooted out of it.
