Provérbios 2

Wisdom and Bad Friends

1 My child, you must follow

and treasure my teachings

and my instructions.

2 Keep in tune with wisdom

and think what it means

to have common sense.

3 Beg as loud as you can

for good common sense.

4 Search for wisdom

as you would search for silver

or hidden treasure.

5 Then you will understand

what it means to respect

and to know the Lord God.

6 *Ws 9.10; Si 1.1.All wisdom comes from the Lord,

and so do common sense

and understanding.
