| 1[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 1My son, if thou wilt receive my words, and hide my commandments with thee; |
| 2[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 2So that thou incline thine ear unto wisdom, and apply thine heart to understanding; |
| 3[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 3Yea, if thou criest after knowledge, and liftest up thy voice for understanding; |
| 4[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 4If thou seekest her as silver, and searchest for her as for hid treasures; |
| 5[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 5Then shalt thou understand the fear of the LORD, and find the knowledge of God. |
| 6[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 6For the LORD giveth wisdom: out of his mouth cometh knowledge and understanding. |
| 7[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 7He layeth up sound wisdom for the righteous: he is a buckler to them that walk uprightly. |
| 8[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 8He keepeth the paths of judgment, and preserveth the way of his saints. |
| 9[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 9Then shalt thou understand righteousness, and judgment, and equity; yea, every good path. |
| 10[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 10When wisdom entereth into thine heart, and knowledge is pleasant unto thy soul; |
| 11[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 11Discretion shall preserve thee, understanding shall keep thee: |
| 12[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 12To deliver thee from the way of the evil man, from the man that speaketh froward things; |
| 13[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 13Who leave the paths of uprightness, to walk in the ways of darkness; |
| 14[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 14Who rejoice to do evil, and delight in the frowardness of the wicked; |
| 15[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 15Whose ways are crooked, and they froward in their paths: |
| 16[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 16To deliver thee from the strange woman, even from the stranger which flattereth with her words; |
| 17[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 17Which forsaketh the guide of her youth, and forgetteth the covenant of her God. |
| 18[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 18For her house inclineth unto death, and her paths unto the dead. |
| 19[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 19None that go unto her return again, neither take they hold of the paths of life. |
| 20[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 20That thou mayest walk in the way of good men, and keep the paths of the righteous. |
| 21[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 21For the upright shall dwell in the land, and the perfect shall remain in it. |
| 22[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 22But the wicked shall be cut off from the earth, and the transgressors shall be rooted out of it. |
