American King James Version
"If you seek her as silver, and search for her as for hid treasures; "
— Proverbs 2:4, American King James Version
“If thou seekest her as silver, and searchest for her as for hid treasures;”
“If thou seek her as silver, And search for her as for hid treasures: ”
“If you seek her as silver, and search for her as for hidden treasures:”
“if you seek it like silver, and search for it like hidden treasure,”
“If thou shalt seek her as money, and shalt dig for her as for a treasure:”
“If you are looking for her as for silver, and searching for her as for stored-up wealth;”
“If thou seekest her as silver, and searchest for her as for hid treasures;”
My son, if you will receive my words, and hide my commandments with you;
So that you incline your ear to wisdom, and apply your heart to understanding;
Yes, if you cry after knowledge, and lift up your voice for understanding;
If you seek her as silver, and search for her as for hid treasures;
Then shall you understand the fear of the LORD, and find the knowledge of God.
For the LORD gives wisdom: out of his mouth comes knowledge and understanding.
He lays up sound wisdom for the righteous: he is a buckler to them that walk uprightly.
