ERV(i)
1 My son, if thou wilt receive my words, and lay up my commandments with thee;
2 So that thou incline thine ear unto wisdom, and apply thine heart to understanding;
3 Yea, if thou cry after discernment, and lift up thy voice for understanding;
4 If thou seek her as silver, and search for her as for hid treasures;
5 Then shalt thou understand the fear of the LORD, and find the knowledge of God.
6 For the LORD giveth wisdom; out of his mouth [cometh] knowledge and understanding:
7 He layeth up sound wisdom for the upright, [he is] a shield to them that walk in integrity;
