Proverbs 2:1
Verse 1 of 22. The 2nd of 31 chapters in Proverbs, in Poetry and Wisdom.
1My son, if you will receive my words, and store up my commandments within you,
2so as to turn your ear to wisdom, and apply your heart to understanding;
3yes, if you call out for discernment, and lift up your voice for understanding;
4if you seek her as silver, and search for her as for hidden treasures;
5then you will understand the fear of the LORD, and find the knowledge of God.
