1 My sonne, if thou wilt receiue my wordes, and hide my commandements within thee,

2 And cause thine eares to hearken vnto wisdome, and encline thine heart to vnderstanding,

5 Then shalt thou vnderstand the feare of the Lord, and finde the knowledge of God.

6 For the Lord giueth wisdome, out of his mouth commeth knowledge and vnderstanding.
