Proverbs 2:1-6

NAS

NIV

1 My son, if you will receive my words And treasure my commandments within you,
1 My son, if you accept my words and store up my commands within you,
2 Make your ear attentive to wisdom, Incline your heart to understanding;
2 turning your ear to wisdom and applying your heart to understanding—
3 For if you cry for discernment, Lift your voice for understanding;
3 indeed, if you call out for insight and cry aloud for understanding,
4 If you seek her as silver And search for her as for hidden treasures;
4 and if you look for it as for silver and search for it as for hidden treasure,
5 Then you will discern the fear of the LORD And discover the knowledge of God.
5 then you will understand the fear of the LORDand find the knowledge of God.
6 For the LORD gives wisdom; From His mouth come knowledge and understanding.
6 For the LORD gives wisdom; from his mouth come knowledge and understanding.
