1 My sonne, if thou wylt receaue my wordes, and lay vp my commaundementes within thee, My son, if you receive my words and treasure up my commandments with you, My son, if you accept my words and store up my commands within you,
2 That thou wylt encline thine eares vnto wisdome: applye thine heart then to vnderstandyng. making your ear attentive to wisdom and inclining your heart to understanding; turning your ear to wisdom and applying your heart to understanding—
3 For if thou cryest after wisdome, and cryest for knowledge: yes, if you call out for insight and raise your voice for understanding, indeed, if you call out for insight and cry aloud for understanding,
4 If thou seekest for her as for siluer, and searchest for her as for 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 shalt thou vnderstand the feare of the Lorde, and finde 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.
