1
|
My child, learn what I teach you and never forget what I tell you to do. |
2
|
Listen to what is wise and try to understand it. |
3
|
Yes, beg for knowledge; plead for insight. |
4
|
Look for it as hard as you would for silver or some hidden treasure. |
5
|
If you do, you will know what it means to fear the LORD and you will succeed in learning about God. |
6
|
It is the LORD who gives wisdom; from him come knowledge and understanding. |
7
|
He provides help and protection for those who are righteous and honest. |
8
|
He protects those who treat others fairly, and guards those who are devoted to him. |
9

If you listen to me, you will know what is right, just, and fair. You will know what you should do. |
10
|
You will become wise, and your knowledge will give you pleasure. |
11
|
Your insight and understanding will protect you |
12
|
and prevent you from doing the wrong thing. They will keep you away from people who stir up trouble by what they say--- |
13
|
those who have abandoned a righteous life to live in the darkness of sin, |
14
|
those who find pleasure in doing wrong and who enjoy senseless evil, |
15
|
unreliable people who cannot be trusted. |
16
|
You will be able to resist any immoral woman who tries to seduce you with her smooth talk, |
17
|
who is faithless to her own husband and forgets her sacred vows. |
18
|
If you go to her house, you are traveling the road to death. To go there is to approach the world of the dead. |
19
|
No one who visits her ever comes back. He never returns to the road to life. |
20
|
So you must follow the example of good people and live a righteous life. |
21
|
Righteous people---people of integrity---will live in this land of ours. |
22
|
But God will snatch the wicked from the land and pull sinners out of it like plants from the ground. |
