Proverbs chapter 2

Bible Version
Book
Chapter
1
My son,H1121 ifH518 you will receiveH3947 my words,H561 and hideH6845 my commandmentsH4687 with you;
2
So that you inclineH7181 your earH241 to wisdom,H2451 and applyH5186 your heartH3820 to understanding;H8394
3
Yes,H3588 ifH518 you cryH7121 after knowledge,H998 and liftH5414 up your voiceH6963 for understanding;H8394
4
IfH518 you seekH1245 her as silver,H3701 and searchH2664 for her as for hidH4301 treasures;H4301
5
ThenH227 shall you understandH995 the fearH3374 of the LORD,H3068 and findH4672 the knowledgeH1847 of God.H430
6
For the LORDH3068 givesH5414 wisdom:H2451 out of his mouthH6310 comes knowledgeH1847 and understanding.H8394
7
He laysH6845 up soundH8454 wisdomH8454 for the righteous:H3477 he is a bucklerH4043 to them that walkH1980 uprightly.H8537
8
He keepsH5341 the pathsH734 of judgment,H4941 and preservesH8104 the wayH1870 of his saints.H2623
9
ThenH227 shall you understandH995 righteousness,H6664 and judgment,H4941 and equity;H4339 yes, everyH3605 goodH2896 path.H4570
10
WhenH3588 wisdomH2451 entersH935 into your heart,H3820 and knowledgeH1847 is pleasantH5276 to your soul;H5315
11
DiscretionH4209 shall preserveH8104 you, understandingH8394 shall keepH5341 you:
12
To deliverH5337 you from the wayH1870 of the evilH7451 man,H376 from the man that speaksH1696 fraudulentH8419 things;
13
Who leaveH5800 the pathsH734 of uprightness,H3476 to walkH3212 in the waysH1870 of darkness;H2822
14
Who rejoiceH8056 to doH6213 evil,H7451 and delightH1523 in the frowardnessH8419 of the wicked;H7451
15
WhoseH834 waysH734 are crooked,H6141 and they fraudulentH3868 in their paths:H4570
16
To deliverH5337 you from the strangeH2114 woman,H802 even from the strangerH5237 which flattersH2505 with her words;H561
17
Which forsakesH5800 the guideH441 of her youth,H5271 and forgetsH7913 the covenantH1285 of her God.H430
18
For her houseH1004 inclinesH7743 to death,H4194 and her pathsH4570 to the dead.H7496
19
NoneH3808 that goH935 to her returnH7725 again,H7725 neither takeH5381 they holdH5381 of the pathsH734 of life.H2416
20
That you may walkH3212 in the wayH1870 of goodH2896 men, and keepH8104 the pathsH734 of the righteous.H6662
21
For the uprightH3477 shall dwellH7931 in the land,H776 and the perfectH8549 shall remainH3498 in it.
22
But the wickedH7563 shall be cutH3772 off from the earth,H776 and the transgressorsH898 shall be rootedH5255 out of it.
