1. My son, if you will receive my words,and store up my commandments within you;
2. So as to turn your ear to wisdom,and apply your heart to understanding;
3. Yes, if you call out for discernment,and lift up your voice for understanding;
4. If you seek her as silver,and search for her as for hidden treasures:
5. then you will understand the fear of the Lord,and find the knowledge of God.
6. For the Lord gives wisdom.Out of his mouth comes knowledge and understanding.
