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.
