nkjv@Proverbs:2:1 @ My son, if you receive my words, And treasure my commands within you,
nkjv@Proverbs:2:2 @ So that you incline your ear to wisdom, And apply your heart to understanding;
nkjv@Proverbs:2:3 @ Yes, if you cry out for discernment, And lift up your voice for understanding,
nkjv@Proverbs:2:4 @ If you seek her as silver, And search for her as for hidden treasures;
nkjv@Proverbs:2:5 @ Then you will understand the fear of the LORD, And find the knowledge of God.
nkjv@Proverbs:2:6 @ For the LORD gives wisdom; From His mouth come knowledge and understanding;
nkjv@Proverbs:2:7 @ He stores up sound wisdom for the upright; He is a shield to those who walk uprightly;
nkjv@Proverbs:2:8 @ He guards the paths of justice, And preserves the way of His saints.
nkjv@Proverbs:2:9 @ Then you will understand righteousness and justice, Equity and every good path.
nkjv@Proverbs:2:10 @ When wisdom enters your heart, And knowledge is pleasant to your soul,
nkjv@Proverbs:2:11 @ Discretion will preserve you; Understanding will keep you,
nkjv@Proverbs:2:12 @ To deliver you from the way of evil, From the man who speaks perverse things,
nkjv@Proverbs:2:13 @ From those who leave the paths of uprightness To walk in the ways of darkness;
nkjv@Proverbs:2:14 @ Who rejoice in doing evil, And delight in the perversity of the wicked;
nkjv@Proverbs:2:15 @ Whose ways are crooked, And who are devious in their paths;
nkjv@Proverbs:2:16 @ To deliver you from the immoral woman, From the seductress who flatters with her words,
nkjv@Proverbs:2:17 @ Who forsakes the companion of her youth, And forgets the covenant of her God.
nkjv@Proverbs:2:18 @ For her house leads down to death, And her paths to the dead;
nkjv@Proverbs:2:19 @ None who go to her return, Nor do they regain the paths of life--
nkjv@Proverbs:2:20 @ So you may walk in the way of goodness, And keep to the paths of righteousness.
nkjv@Proverbs:2:21 @ For the upright will dwell in the land, And the blameless will remain in it;
nkjv@Proverbs:2:22 @ But the wicked will be cut off from the earth, And the unfaithful will be uprooted from it.
