Proverbs 2:3-9
New King James Version
3 Yes, if you cry out for discernment,
And lift up your voice for understanding,
4 (A)If you seek her as silver,
And search for her as for hidden treasures;
5 (B)Then you will understand the fear of the Lord,
And find the knowledge of God.
6 (C)For the Lord gives wisdom;
From His mouth come knowledge and understanding;
7 He stores up sound wisdom for the upright;
(D)He is a shield to those who walk uprightly;
8 He guards the paths of justice,
And (E)preserves the way of His saints.
9 Then you will understand righteousness and justice,
Equity and every good path.
