Proverbs 2: ²² but the wicked will be cut off from the land, and the unfaithful will be torn from it. (4)

                                                                                                                    147

¹⁷ who has left the partner of her youth and ignored the covenant she made before God. (8)
¹⁸ Surely her house leads down to death and her paths to the spirits of the dead.
                                                                                                                    369

⁸ for he guards the course of the just and protects the way of His faithful ones. (8)

⁹ Then you will understand what is right and just and fair—every good path.

                                                                                                                    369

²¹ For the upright will live in the land, and the blameless will remain in it; (3) (New Jerusalem)

                                                                                                                    138

¹² Wisdom will save you from the ways of wicked men, from men whose words are perverse, (3)
¹³ who have left the straight paths to walk in dark ways,
¹⁴ who delight in doing wrong and rejoice in the perverseness of evil,
¹⁵ whose paths are crooked and who are devious in their ways.

¹⁶ Wisdom will save you also from the adulterous woman, from the wayward woman with her seductive words,
                                                                                                                    147

³ indeed, if you call out for insight and cry aloud for understanding, (3)
⁴ and if you look for it as for silver and search for it as for hidden treasure,
⁵ then you will understand the fear of the Lord and find the knowledge of GOD.
⁶ For the Lord gives wisdom; from His Mouth come knowledge and understanding.
⁷ He holds success in store for the upright, He is a shield to those whose walk is blameless,

                                                                                                                    147

¹⁹ None who go to her return or attain the paths of life. (1)

²⁰ Thus you will walk in the ways of the good and keep to the paths of the righteous.
                                                                                                                    258

¹⁰ For wisdom will enter your heart, and knowledge will be pleasant to your soul. (1)
¹¹ Discretion will protect you, and understanding will guard you.
