1. My son, if you will receive my words, and store up my commandments within you;
2. So as to turn your ear to wisdom, and apply your heart to understanding;
3. Yes, if you call out for discernment, and lift up your voice for understanding;
4. If you seek her as silver, and search for her as for hidden treasures:
5. then you will understand the fear of Yahweh, and find the knowledge of God.
