“Yes, if you call out for discernment, and lift up your voice for understanding;”
“For if thou shalt call for wisdom, and incline thy heart to prudence:”
“Truly, if you are crying out for good sense, and your request is for knowledge;”
“Yea, if thou criest after knowledge, and liftest up thy voice for understanding;”
Benefits of Seeking Wisdom My child, if you receive my words, and store up my commands inside yourself,
by making your ear attentive to wisdom, and by turning your heart to understanding,
indeed, if you call out for discernment– shout loudly for understanding–
if you seek it like silver, and search for it like hidden treasure,
then you will understand how to fear the LORD, and you will discover knowledge about God.
For the LORD gives wisdom, and from his mouth comes knowledge and understanding.
