Chap. II. note Gaining of wisdom bringeth much good, 10. and auoydeth much euil: 16. deliuering from error of Idolaters and Hæretikes.

1   My sonne, note if thou wilt receiue my wordes, and wilt hide my commandments with thee,

2   that thyne eare may heare wisdom: incline thyne hart to knowe prudence.

3   For if thou shalt cal for wisdom, and incline thyne hart to prudence:

4   If thou shalt seeke her note as money, and as treasures shalt dig her vp:

5   then shalt thou vnderstand the feare of our Lord, and shalt finde the knowlege of God.

6   Because our Lord geueth wisdom: and out of his mouth prudence and knowlege.

7   He wil keepe the saluation of the righteous, & protect them that walke simply

8   Keeping the pathes of iustice, & garding the wayes of saints.

9   Then shalt thou vnderstand iustice, and iudgement, and equitie, and euerie good path.

10   If wisdom shal enter into thy hart, and knowlege please thy soule:

11   counsel shal keepe thee, and prudence shal preserue thee,

12   that thou mayst be deliuered from the euil way, and from the man, that speaketh peruerse thinges:

13   09Q0281who note leaue the right way, and walke by darke wayes:

14   09Q0282who are glad when they haue done euil, and reioyce in most wicked thinges:

15   whose wayes are peruerse, and their steppes infamous.

16   That thou mayst be deliuered

-- --

from09Q0283 the strange woman, and from the forener, which mollifieth her wordes,

17   forsaketh the guide of her youth,

18   and hath forgotten the couenant of her God. For her house is bowed downe to death, and her pathes to hel.

19   Al09Q0284 that goe in vnto her, shal not returne neither shal they apprehend the pathes of life.

20   That thou mayst walke in a good way: and mayst keepe the pathes of the iust.

21   For they that are right, shal dwel in the earth, and the simple shal continue in it.

22   But the impious shal be destroyed from the earth: and they that doe vniustly shal be taken away from it.
