| 4 | If you seek skillful and godly wisdom as you would silver And search for her as you would hidden treasures; | if you seek it like silver and search for it as for hidden treasures, | and if you look for it as for silver and search for it as for hidden treasure, | |
| 5 | Then you will understand the [reverent] fear of the LORD [that is, worshiping Him and regarding Him as truly awesome] And discover the knowledge of God. | then you will understand the fear of the LORD and find the knowledge of God. | then you will understand the fear of the LORD and find the knowledge of God. | |
| 6 | For the LORD gives [skillful and godly] wisdom; From His mouth come knowledge and understanding. | For the LORD gives wisdom; from his mouth come knowledge and understanding; | For the LORD gives wisdom; from his mouth come knowledge and understanding. | |
| 7 | He stores away sound wisdom for the righteous [those who are in right standing with Him]; He is a shield to those who walk in integrity [those of honorable character and moral courage], | he stores up sound wisdom for the upright; he is a shield to those who walk in integrity, | He holds success in store for the upright, he is a shield to those whose walk is blameless, | |
