Proverbs - Chapter: 2


2:1	Mi sone, if thou resseyuest my wordis, `and hidist myn heestis anentis thee;
2:2	that thin eere here wisdom, bowe thin herte to knowe prudence.
2:3	For if thou inwardli clepist wisdom, and bowist thin herte to prudence;
2:4	if thou sekist it as money, and diggist it out as tresours;
2:5	thanne thou schalt vndirstonde the drede of the Lord, and schalt fynde the kunnyng of God.
2:6	For the Lord yyueth wisdom; and prudence and kunnyng is of his mouth.
2:7	He schal kepe the heelthe of riytful men, and he schal defende hem that goen sympli.
2:8	And he schal kepe the pathis of riytfulnesse, and he schal kepe the weies of hooli men.
2:9	Thanne thou schalt vndirstonde riytfulnesse, and dom, and equytee, and ech good path.
2:10	If wysdom entrith in to thin herte, and kunnyng plesith thi soule,
2:11	good councel schal kepe thee, and prudence schal kepe thee; that thou be delyuered fro an yuel weie,
2:12	and fro a man that spekith weiward thingis.
2:13	Whiche forsaken a riytful weie, and goen bi derk weies;
2:14	whiche ben glad, whanne thei han do yuel, and maken ful out ioye in worste thingis;
2:15	whose weies ben weywerd, and her goyingis ben of yuel fame.
2:16	That thou be delyuered fro an alien womman, and fro a straunge womman, that makith soft hir wordis;
2:17	and forsakith the duyk of hir tyme of mariage,
2:18	and hath foryete the couenaunt of hir God. For the hous of hir is bowid to deeth, and hir pathis to helle.
2:19	Alle that entren to hir, schulen not turne ayen, nether schulen catche the pathis of lijf.
2:20	That thou go in a good weie, and kepe the pathis of iust men.
2:21	Forsothe thei that ben riytful, schulen dwelle in the lond; and symple men schulen perfitli dwelle ther ynne.
2:22	But vnfeithful men schulen be lost fro the loond; and thei that doen wickidli, schulen be takun awey fro it.


2:1	My sonne, if thou wilt receiue my wordes, and hide my commandements within thee,
2:2	And cause thine eares to hearken vnto wisdome, and encline thine heart to vnderstanding,
2:3	(For if thou callest after knowledge, and cryest for vnderstanding:
2:4	If thou seekest her as siluer, and searchest for her as for treasures,
2:5	Then shalt thou vnderstand the feare of the Lord, and finde the knowledge of God.
2:6	For the Lord giueth wisdome, out of his mouth commeth knowledge and vnderstanding.
2:7	He preserueth the state of the righteous: he is a shielde to them that walke vprightly,
2:8	That they may keepe the wayes of iudgement: and he preserueth the way of his Saintes)
2:9	Then shalt thou vnderstand righteousnes, and iudgement, and equitie, and euery good path.
2:10	When wisdome entreth into thine heart, and knowledge deliteth thy soule,
2:11	Then shall counsell preserue thee, and vnderstanding shall keepe thee,
2:12	And deliuer thee from the euill way, and from the man that speaketh froward things,
2:13	And from them that leaue the wayes of righteousnes to walke in the wayes of darkenes:
2:14	Which reioyce in doing euill, and delite in the frowardnesse of the wicked,
2:15	Whose wayes are crooked and they are lewde in their paths.
2:16	And it shall deliuer thee from the strange woman, euen from the stranger, which flattereth with her wordes.
2:17	Which forsaketh the guide of her youth, and forgetteth the couenant of her God.
2:18	Surely her house tendeth to death, and her paths vnto the dead.
2:19	All they that goe vnto her, returne not againe, neither take they holde of the wayes of life.
2:20	Therefore walke thou in the way of good men, and keepe the wayes of the righteous.
2:21	For the iust shall dwell in the land, and the vpright men shall remaine in it.
2:22	But the wicked shalbe cut off from ye earth, and the transgressours shalbe rooted out of it.
