Proverbs 2 (KJV)   My son, if thou wilt receive my words, and hide my 
commandments with thee; {2} So that thou incline thine ear unto wisdom, and 
apply thine heart to understanding; {3} Yea, if thou criest after knowledge, 
and liftest up thy voice for understanding; {4} If thou seekest her as silver, 
and searchest for her as for hid treasures; {5} Then shalt thou understand the 
fear of the LORD, and find the knowledge of God. {6} For the LORD giveth 
wisdom: out of his mouth cometh knowledge and understanding. {7} He layeth up 
sound wisdom for the righteous: he is a buckler to them that walk uprightly. 
{8} He keepeth the paths of judgment, and preserveth the way of his saints. 
{9} Then shalt thou understand righteousness, and judgment, and equity; yea, 
every good path. {10} When wisdom entereth into thine heart, and knowledge is 
pleasant unto thy soul; {11} Discretion shall preserve thee, understanding 
shall keep thee: {12} To deliver thee from the way of the evil man, from the 
man that speaketh froward things; {13} Who leave the paths of uprightness, to 
walk in the ways of darkness; {14} Who rejoice to do evil, and delight in the 
frowardness of the wicked; {15} Whose ways are crooked, and they froward in 
their paths: {16} To deliver thee from the strange woman, even from the 
stranger which flattereth with her words; {17} Which forsaketh the guide of 
her youth, and forgetteth the covenant of her God. {18} For her house 
inclineth unto death, and her paths unto the dead. {19} None that go unto her 
return again, neither take they hold of the paths of life. {20} That thou 
mayest walk in the way of good men, and keep the paths of the righteous. 
{21} For the upright shall dwell in the land, and the perfect shall remain in 
it. {22} But the wicked shall be cut off from the earth, and the transgressors 
shall be rooted out of it.
