| Proverbs 2:6 | Because the Lord giveth wisdom: and out of his mouth cometh prudence and knowledge. | For Jehovah giveth wisdom; Out of his mouth [cometh] knowledge and understanding: |
| Proverbs 2:7 | He will keep the salvation of the righteous, and protect them that walk in simplicity. | He layeth up sound wisdom for the upright; [He is] a shield to them that walk in integrity; |
| Proverbs 2:8 | Keeping the paths of justice, and guarding the ways of saints. | That he may guard the paths of justice, And preserve the way of his saints. |

| Proverbs 2:11 | Counsel shall keep thee, and prudence shall preserve thee, | Discretion shall watch over thee; Understanding shall keep thee: |
| Proverbs 2:12 | That thou mayst be delivered from the evil way, and from the man that speaketh perverse things: | To deliver thee from the way of evil, From the men that speak perverse things; |
| Proverbs 2:13 | Who leave the right way, and walk by dark ways: | Who forsake the paths of uprightness, To walk in the ways of darkness; |
| Proverbs 2:14 | Who are glad when they have done evil, and rejoice in most wicked things: | Who rejoice to do evil, And delight in the perverseness of evil; |
| Proverbs 2:15 | Whose ways are perverse, and their steps infamous. | Who are crooked in their ways, And wayward in their paths: |
| Proverbs 2:16 | That thou mayst be delivered from the strange women, and from the stranger, who softeneth her words: | To deliver thee from the strange woman, Even from the foreigner that flattereth with her words; |
| Proverbs 2:17 | And forsaketh the guide of her youth, | That forsaketh the friend of her youth, And forgetteth the covenant of her God: |
| Proverbs 2:18 | And hath forgotten the covenant of her God: for her house inclineth unto death, and her paths to hell. | For her house inclineth unto death, And her paths unto the dead; |
| Proverbs 2:19 | None that go in unto her shall return again, neither shall they take hold of the paths of life, | None that go unto her return again, Neither do they attain unto the paths of life: |
| Proverbs 2:20 | That thou mayst walk in a good way: and mayst keep the paths of the just. | That thou mayest walk in the way of good men, And keep the paths of the righteous. |
| Proverbs 2:21 | For they that are upright shall dwell in the earth, and the simple shall continue in it. | For the upright shall dwell in the land, And the perfect shall remain in it. |
| Proverbs 2:22 | But the wicked shall be destroyed from the earth: and they that do unjustly shall be taken away from it. | But the wicked shall be cut off from the land, And the treacherous shall be rooted out of it. |
