²⁹ Because they hated knowledge
    and did not choose the fear of the Lord,

³ if you indeed cry out for insight
    and raise your voice for understanding,
⁴ if you seek it like silver
    and search for it as for hidden treasures—^(A)
5 then you will understand the fear of the Lord
    and find the knowledge of God.^(B)

⁷ Do not be wise in your own eyes;
    fear the Lord and turn away from evil.^(A)
8 It will be a healing for your flesh
    and a refreshment for your body.^(B)

¹³ The fear of the Lord is hatred of evil.
Pride and arrogance and the way of evil
    and perverted speech I hate.^(A)
