Proverbs - Chapter: 2

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

 

2:1My sonne, if thou wilt receiue my wordes, and hide my commandements within thee,
2:2And cause thine eares to hearken vnto wisdome, and encline thine heart to vnderstanding,
2:3(For if thou callest after knowledge, and cryest for vnderstanding:
2:4If thou seekest her as siluer, and searchest for her as for treasures,
2:5Then shalt thou vnderstand the feare of the Lord, and finde the knowledge of God.
2:6For the Lord giueth wisdome, out of his mouth commeth knowledge and vnderstanding.
2:7He preserueth the state of the righteous: he is a shielde to them that walke vprightly,
2:8That they may keepe the wayes of iudgement: and he preserueth the way of his Saintes)
2:9Then shalt thou vnderstand righteousnes, and iudgement, and equitie, and euery good path.
2:10When wisdome entreth into thine heart, and knowledge deliteth thy soule,
2:11Then shall counsell preserue thee, and vnderstanding shall keepe thee,
2:12And deliuer thee from the euill way, and from the man that speaketh froward things,
2:13And from them that leaue the wayes of righteousnes to walke in the wayes of darkenes:
2:14Which reioyce in doing euill, and delite in the frowardnesse of the wicked,
2:15Whose wayes are crooked and they are lewde in their paths.
2:16And it shall deliuer thee from the strange woman, euen from the stranger, which flattereth with her wordes.
2:17Which forsaketh the guide of her youth, and forgetteth the couenant of her God.
2:18Surely her house tendeth to death, and her paths vnto the dead.
2:19All they that goe vnto her, returne not againe, neither take they holde of the wayes of life.
2:20Therefore walke thou in the way of good men, and keepe the wayes of the righteous.
2:21For the iust shall dwell in the land, and the vpright men shall remaine in it.
2:22But the wicked shalbe cut off from ye earth, and the transgressours shalbe rooted out of it.
