Proverbs 2

The Rewards of Wisdom

1 My child, learn what I teach you and never forget what I tell you to do. 2 Listen to what is wise and try to understand it. 3 Yes, beg for knowledge; plead for insight. 4 Look for it as hard as you would for silver or some hidden treasure. 5 If you do, you will know what it means to fear the Lord and you will succeed in learning about God. 6 *Ws 9.10; Si 1.1It is the Lord who gives wisdom; from him come knowledge and understanding.
