1 My son, if you receive my wordsand treasure my commands,
2 Turning your ear to wisdom,inclining your heart to understanding;
3 Yes, if you call for intelligence,and to understanding raise your voice;
4 If you seek her like silver,and like hidden treasures search her out,
5 Then will you understand the fear of the Lord;the knowledge of God you will find;
6 For the Lord gives wisdom,from his mouth come knowledge and understanding;
