Popular Bible Verses from Proverbs 2

The Lord is the source of wisdom; what he says provides knowledge that makes sense.

My son, if you accept what I say and value my instructions, if you pay attention to wisdom and really try to understand; if you cry out for insight and call loudly for help in understanding; if you look for it as if it were silver and search for it as if it were hidden treasure; then you will understand how to relate to the Lord and discover the truth about God.

He gives good judgment to those who live right; he defends those who have good sense. He supports those who act fairly and protects those who trust in him.

For only people who live right will live in the land; only honest people will remain there. But the wicked will be thrown out of the land; those who are untrustworthy will be pulled out by the roots.

Doing this will also save you from a woman who acts immorally, from a woman who like a prostitute tries to seduce you with flattering words. Such a woman has left her husband she married when she was young, forgetting the promises she made before God.
