Proverbs 2:6-11

English Standard Version

⁶ For ^(A)the Lord gives wisdom;
    from his mouth come knowledge and understanding;
⁷ he stores up sound wisdom for the upright;
    he is ^(B)a shield to those who ^(C)walk in integrity,
⁸ guarding the paths of justice
    and ^(D)watching over the way of his ^(E)saints.
^9 (F)Then you will understand ^(G)righteousness and justice
    and equity, every good path;
¹⁰ for wisdom will come into your heart,
    and knowledge will be pleasant to your soul;
^11 (H)discretion will ^(I)watch over you,
    understanding will guard you,
