My son, if you will ^(A)receive my words
And ^(B)treasure my commandments within you,

^(C)Make your ear attentive to wisdom,
Incline your heart to understanding;

For if you cry for discernment,
^(a)Lift your voice for understanding;

If you seek her as ^(D)silver
And search for her as for ^(E)hidden treasures;

Then you will discern the ^(F)fear of the Lord
And discover the knowledge of God.

For ^(G)the Lord gives wisdom;
From His mouth come knowledge and understanding.
