20:002:002 So that thou incline thine ear unto wisdom, and apply thine
           heart to understanding;

20:002:003 Yea, if thou criest after knowledge, and liftest up thy voice
           for understanding;

20:002:004 If thou seekest her as silver, and searchest for her as for
           hid treasures;

20:002:005 Then shalt thou understand the fear of the lord, and find the
           knowledge of God.

20:002:006 For the lord giveth wisdom:  out of his mouth cometh knowledge
           and understanding.

20:002:007 He layeth up sound wisdom for the righteous:  he is a buckler
           to them that walk uprightly.

20:002:008 He keepeth the paths of judgment, and preserveth the way of
           his saints.

20:002:009 Then shalt thou understand righteousness, and judgment, and
           equity; yea, every good path.

20:002:010 When wisdom entereth into thine heart, and knowledge is
           pleasant unto thy soul;

20:002:011 Discretion shall preserve thee, understanding shall keep thee: 

20:002:012 To deliver thee from the way of the evil man, from the man
           that speaketh froward things;

20:002:013 Who leave the paths of uprightness, to walk in the ways of
           darkness;

20:002:014 Who rejoice to do evil, and delight in the frowardness of the
           wicked;

20:002:015 Whose ways are crooked, and they froward in their paths: 

20:002:016 To deliver thee from the strange woman, even from the stranger
           which flattereth with her words;

20:002:017 Which forsaketh the guide of her youth, and forgetteth the
           covenant of her God.

20:002:018 For her house inclineth unto death, and her paths unto the
           dead.

20:002:019 None that go unto her return again, neither take they hold of
           the paths of life.

20:002:020 That thou mayest walk in the way of good men, and keep the
           paths of the righteous.

20:002:021 For the upright shall dwell in the land, and the perfect shall
           remain in it.

20:002:022 But the wicked shall be cut off from the earth, and the
           transgressors shall be rooted out of it.

20:003:001 My son, forget not my law; but let thine heart keep my
           commandments: 

20:003:002 For length of days, and long life, and peace, shall they add
           to thee.

20:003:003 Let not mercy and truth forsake thee:  bind them about thy
           neck; write them upon the table of thine heart: 

20:003:004 So shalt thou find favour and good understanding in the sight
           of God and man.

20:003:005 Trust in the lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto
           thine own understanding.
