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