Proverbs 2

The Latin Vulgate VUL

1 fili mi si susceperis sermones meos et mandata mea absconderis penes te

2 ut audiat sapientiam auris tua inclina cor tuum ad noscendam prudentiam

3 si enim sapientiam invocaveris et inclinaveris cor tuum prudentiae

4 si quaesieris eam quasi pecuniam et sicut thesauros effoderis illam

5 tunc intelleges timorem Domini et scientiam Dei invenies

6 quia Dominus dat sapientiam et ex ore eius scientia et prudentia

7 custodiet rectorum salutem et proteget gradientes simpliciter

8 servans semitas iustitiae et vias sanctorum custodiens

9 tunc intelleges iustitiam et iudicium et aequitatem et omnem semitam bonam

10 si intraverit sapientia cor tuum et scientia animae tuae placuerit

11 consilium custodiet te prudentia servabit te

12 ut eruaris de via mala ab homine qui perversa loquitur

13 qui relinquunt iter rectum et ambulant per vias tenebrosas

14 qui laetantur cum malefecerint et exultant in rebus pessimis

15 quorum viae perversae et infames gressus eorum

16 ut eruaris a muliere aliena et ab extranea quae mollit sermones suos

17 et relinquit ducem pubertatis suae

18 et pacti Dei sui oblita est inclinata est enim ad mortem domus eius et ad impios semitae ipsius

19 omnes qui ingrediuntur ad eam non revertentur nec adprehendent semitas vitae

20 ut ambules in via bona et calles iustorum custodias

21 qui enim recti sunt habitabunt in terra et simplices permanebunt in ea

22 impii vero de terra perdentur et qui inique agunt auferentur ex ea

English Standard Version ESV

1 My son, if you receive my words and treasure up my commandments with you,

2 making your ear attentive to wisdom and inclining your heart to understanding;

3 yes, if you call out for insight and raise your voice for understanding,

4 if you seek it like silver and search for it as for hidden treasures,

5 then you will understand the fear of the Lord and find the knowledge of God.

6 For the Lord gives wisdom; from his mouth come knowledge and understanding;

7 he stores up sound wisdom for the upright; he is a shield to those who walk in integrity,

8 guarding the paths of justice and watching over the way of his saints.

9 Then you will understand righteousness and justice and equity, every good path;

10 for wisdom will come into your heart, and knowledge will be pleasant to your soul;

11 discretion will watch over you, understanding will guard you,

12 delivering you from the way of evil, from men of perverted speech,

13 who forsake the paths of uprightness to walk in the ways of darkness,

14 who rejoice in doing evil and delight in the perverseness of evil,

15 men whose paths are crooked, and who are devious in their ways.

16 So you will be delivered from the forbidden woman, from the adulteress with her smooth words,

17 who forsakes the companion of her youth and forgets the covenant of her God;

18 for her house sinks down to death, and her paths to the departed;

19 none who go to her come back, nor do they regain the paths of life.

20 So you will walk in the way of the good and keep to the paths of the righteous.

21 For the upright will inhabit the land, and those with integrity will remain in it,

22 but the wicked will be cut off from the land, and the treacherous will be rooted out of it.
