Proverbs 2:2-6

²Thine ear shall hearken to wisdom; Thou shalt also apply thy heart to understanding, And shalt apply it to the instruction of thy son.

³For if thou shalt call to wisdom, And utter thy voice for understanding;

⁴And if thou shalt seek it as silver, And search diligently for it as for treasures;

⁵Then shalt thou understand the fear of the Lord, And find the knowledge of God.

⁶For the Lord gives wisdom; And from his presence come knowledge and understanding,
