Book 28 : KETUVIM - PROVERBS - Chapter 002
02:001
My son, if thou wilt receive my words, and lay up my
commandments with thee
02:002
So that thou make thine ear attend unto wisdom, and thy
heart incline to discernment
02:003
Yea, if thou call for understanding, and lift up thy voice
for discernment
02:004
If thou seek her as silver, and search for her as for hid
treasures
02:005
Then shalt thou understand the fear of HaShem, and find the
knowledge of G-d
02:006
For HaShem giveth wisdom, out of His mouth cometh knowledge
and discernment
02:007
He layeth up sound wisdom for the upright, He is a shield
to them that walk in integrity
02:008
That He may guard the paths of justice, and preserve the
way of His godly ones
02:009
Then shalt thou understand righteousness and justice, and
equity, yea, every good path
02:010
For wisdom shall enter into thy heart, and knowledge shall
be pleasant unto thy soul
02:011
Discretion shall watch over thee, discernment shall guard
thee
02:012
To deliver thee from the way of evil, from the men that
speak froward things
02:013
Who leave the paths of uprightness, to walk in the ways of
darkness
02:014
Who rejoice to do evil, and delight in the frowardness of
evil
02:015
Who are crooked in their ways, and perverse in their
paths
02:016
To deliver thee from the strange woman, even from the
alien woman that maketh smooth her words
02:017
That forsaketh the lord of her youth, and forgetteth the
covenant of her G-d
02:018
For her house sinketh down unto death, and her paths unto
the shades
02:019
None that go unto her return, neither do they attain unto
the paths of life
02:020
That thou mayest walk in the way of good men, and keep the
paths of the righteous
02:021
For the upright shall dwell in the land, and the
whole-hearted shall remain in it
02:022
But the wicked shall be cut off from the land, and the
faithless shall be plucked up out of it
