Proverbs
Chapters 2:2-8
Holy Bible: Easy-To-Read Version
2Listen to wisdom, and do your best to understand.
3Ask for good judgment. Cry out for understanding.
4Look for wisdom like silver. Search for it like hidden treasure.
5If you do this, you will understand what it means to respect the Lord, and you will come to know God.
6The Lord is the source of wisdom; knowledge and understanding come from his mouth.
7He gives good advice to honest people and shields those who do what is right.
8He makes sure that people are treated fairly. He watches over his loyal followers.
