6 For the Lord giveth wisdom; out of his mouth cometh knowledge and understanding: RV1885 — Proverbs 2:6
7 He layeth up sound wisdom for the upright, he is a shield to them that walk in integrity; RV1885 — Proverbs 2:7
8 That he may guard the paths of judgment, and preserve the way of his saints. RV1885 — Proverbs 2:8
9 Then shalt thou understand righteousness and judgment, and equity, yea, every good path. RV1885 — Proverbs 2:9

11 Discretion shall watch over thee, understanding shall keep thee: RV1885 — Proverbs 2:11
12 To deliver thee from the way of evil, from the men that speak froward things; RV1885 — Proverbs 2:12
13 Who forsake the paths of uprightness, to walk in the ways of darkness; RV1885 — Proverbs 2:13
14 Who rejoice to do evil, and delight in the frowardness of evil; RV1885 — Proverbs 2:14

16 To deliver thee from the strange woman, even from the stranger which flattereth with her words; RV1885 — Proverbs 2:16

18 For her house inclineth unto death, and her paths unto the dead: RV1885 — Proverbs 2:18
19 None that go unto her return again, neither do they attain unto the paths of life: RV1885 — Proverbs 2:19
20 That thou mayest walk in the way of good men, and keep the paths of the righteous. RV1885 — Proverbs 2:20
