1 My son, if you would accept my words, and conceal my commandments within you, 2 so that your ears may listen to wisdom, then bend your heart in order to know prudence. 3 For if you would call upon wisdom and bend your heart to prudence, 4 if you will seek her like money, and dig for her as if for treasure, 5 then you will understand the fear of the Lord, and you will discover the knowledge of God. 6 For the Lord bestows wisdom, and out of his mouth, prudence and knowledge. 7 He will preserve the salvation of the righteous, and he will protect those who walk in simplicity: Proverbs 2:1-7, Catholic Public Domain Version.
