4If thou dost seek her as silver, And as hid treasures searchest for her,


In Context

1 My son, if thou dost accept my sayings, And my commands dost lay up with thee,

2 To cause thine ear to attend to wisdom, Thou inclinest thy heart to understanding,

3 For, if for intelligence thou callest, For understanding givest forth thy voice,

4 If thou dost seek her as silver, And as hid treasures searchest for her,

5 Then understandest thou fear of Jehovah, And knowledge of God thou findest.

6 For Jehovah giveth wisdom, From His mouth knowledge and understanding.
