2That thou wouldst apply thine ear to wisdom, And incline thy heart to understanding!
3For if thou wilt call aloud to knowledge, And lift up thy voice to understanding,—
4If thou wilt seek her as silver, And search for her as for hidden treasures,
5Then shalt thou understand the fear of the LORD, And find the knowledge of God.
6For the LORD giveth wisdom; From his mouth proceed knowledge and understanding:
7He layeth up safety for the righteous; He is a shield to them that walk uprightly:
