2And cause thine eares to hearken vnto wisdome, and encline thine heart to vnderstanding,
3(For if thou callest after knowledge, and cryest for vnderstanding:
4If thou seekest her as siluer, and searchest for her as for treasures,
5Then shalt thou vnderstand the feare of the Lord, and finde the knowledge of God.
6For the Lord giueth wisdome, out of his mouth commeth knowledge and vnderstanding.
7He preserueth the state of the righteous: he is a shielde to them that walke vprightly,
