Proverbs 2:1 - Forerunner Commentary

Proverbs 2:1

The Value of Wisdom

1 My son, if you receive my words,
And ^atreasure my commands within you,

2 So that you incline your ear to wisdom,
And apply your heart to understanding;

3 Yes, if you cry out for discernment,
And lift up your voice for understanding,

4 ^aIf you seek her as silver,
And search for her as for hidden treasures;

5 ^aThen you will understand the fear of the Lord,
And find the knowledge of God.

6 ^aFor the Lord gives wisdom;
From His mouth come knowledge and understanding;

7 He stores up sound wisdom for the upright;
^aHe is a shield to those who walk uprightly;

8 He guards the paths of justice,
And ^apreserves the way of His saints.

9 Then you will understand righteousness and justice,
Equity and every good path.
