Proverbs 2:2-11
21Make your ear attentive to wisdom, Incline your heart to understanding;3For if you cry for discernment, 2Lift your voice for understanding;4If you seek her as 3silver And search for her as for 4hidden treasures;5Then you will discern the 5fear of the Lord And discover the knowledge of God.6For 6the Lord gives wisdom; From His mouth come knowledge and understanding.7He stores up sound wisdom for the upright; He is a 7shield to those who walk in integrity,8Guarding the paths of justice, And He 8preserves the way of His godly ones.9Then you will discern 9righteousness and justice And equity and every 10good course.10For 11wisdom will enter your heart And 12knowledge will be pleasant to your soul;11Discretion will 13guard you, Understanding will watch over you,
