Proverbs 2:7-15 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

7. He stores up wisdom for those who are honest.Like a shield he protects those who are innocent.

8. He guards those who are fair to others.He protects those who are loyal to him.

9. Then you will understand what is honest and fair and right.You will understand what is good to do.

10. You will have wisdom in your heart.And knowledge will be pleasing to you.

11. Good sense will protect you.Understanding will guard you.

12. It will keep you from doing evil.It will save you from people whose words are bad.

13. Such people do not do what is right.They do what is evil.

14. They enjoy doing wrong.They are happy to do what is crooked and evil.

15. What they do is wrong.Their ways are dishonest.
