Provérbios 2

1 Beni (my son), if thou wilt receive my words,

and treasure my mitzvot with thee;

2 So that thou incline thine ear unto chochmah,

and apply thine lev to tevunah (understanding);

3 Yea, if thou criest out after binah,

and liftest up thy voice for tevunah (understanding),

4 If thou seekest her as kesef,

and searchest for her as for matmonim (hidden treasures);

5 Then shalt thou understand the Yirat Hashem,

and find the Da’as Elohim.

6 For Hashem giveth chochmah;

out of His Peh (mouth) cometh da’as (knowledge) and tevunah (understanding).
