Proverbele 2
Cornilescu 1924 - Revised 2010, 2014
Îndemn la căutarea înţelepciunii
2 Fiule, dacă vei primi cuvintele mele,
dacă vei păstra(A) cu tine învăţăturile mele,
2 dacă vei lua aminte la înţelepciune
şi dacă-ţi vei pleca inima la pricepere;
3 dacă vei cere înţelepciune
şi dacă te vei ruga pentru pricepere;
4 dacă o vei căuta(B) ca argintul
şi vei umbla după ea ca după o comoară,
5 atunci vei înţelege frica de Domnul
şi vei găsi cunoştinţa lui Dumnezeu.
6 Căci(C) Domnul dă înţelepciune;
din gura Lui iese cunoştinţă şi pricepere.
7 El dă izbândă celor fără prihană,
dă un scut(D) celor ce umblă în nevinovăţie.
8 Ocroteşte cărările neprihănirii
şi păzeşte(E) calea credincioşilor Lui.
9 Atunci vei înţelege dreptatea, judecata,
nepărtinirea, toate căile care duc la bine.
Înţelepciunea ne fereşte de cei amăgitori
10 Căci înţelepciunea va veni în inima ta
şi cunoştinţa va fi desfătarea sufletului tău;
11 chibzuinţa(F) va veghea asupra ta,
priceperea te va păzi,
12 ca să te scape de calea cea rea,
de omul care ţine cuvântări stricate;
13 de cei ce părăsesc cărările adevărate,
ca să umble(G) pe drumuri întunecoase;
14 care se bucură(H) să facă răul
şi îşi pun plăcerea(I) în răutate,
15 care(J) umblă pe cărări strâmbe
şi apucă pe drumuri sucite;
16 ca să te scape şi de nevasta(K) altuia,
de străina(L) care întrebuinţează vorbe ademenitoare;
17 care părăseşte(M) pe bărbatul tinereţii ei
şi uită legământul Dumnezeului ei.
18 Căci casa(N) ei pogoară la moarte
şi drumul ei duce la cei morţi:
19 niciunul care se duce la ea nu se mai întoarce
şi nu mai găseşte cărările vieţii.
20 De aceea, tu să umbli pe calea oamenilor de bine
şi să ţii cărările celor neprihăniţi!
21 Căci oamenii(O) fără prihană vor locui ţara
şi oamenii neîntinaţi vor rămâne în ea,
22 dar cei răi(P) vor fi nimiciţi din ţară
şi cei necredincioşi vor fi smulşi din ea.
Proverbs 2
King James Version
Proverbs 2
King James Version
2 My son, if thou wilt receive my words, and hide my commandments with thee;
2 So that thou incline thine ear unto wisdom, and apply thine heart to understanding;
3 Yea, if thou criest after knowledge, and liftest up thy voice for understanding;
4 If thou seekest her as silver, and searchest for her as for hid treasures;
5 Then shalt thou understand the fear of the Lord, and find the knowledge of God.
6 For the Lord giveth wisdom: out of his mouth cometh knowledge and understanding.
7 He layeth up sound wisdom for the righteous: he is a buckler to them that walk uprightly.
8 He keepeth the paths of judgment, and preserveth the way of his saints.
9 Then shalt thou understand righteousness, and judgment, and equity; yea, every good path.
10 When wisdom entereth into thine heart, and knowledge is pleasant unto thy soul;
11 Discretion shall preserve thee, understanding shall keep thee:
12 To deliver thee from the way of the evil man, from the man that speaketh froward things;
13 Who leave the paths of uprightness, to walk in the ways of darkness;
14 Who rejoice to do evil, and delight in the frowardness of the wicked;
15 Whose ways are crooked, and they froward in their paths:
16 To deliver thee from the strange woman, even from the stranger which flattereth with her words;
17 Which forsaketh the guide of her youth, and forgetteth the covenant of her God.
18 For her house inclineth unto death, and her paths unto the dead.
19 None that go unto her return again, neither take they hold of the paths of life.
20 That thou mayest walk in the way of good men, and keep the paths of the righteous.
21 For the upright shall dwell in the land, and the perfect shall remain in it.
22 But the wicked shall be cut off from the earth, and the transgressors shall be rooted out of it.

Moral Benefits of Wisdom
2 My son,(A) if you accept my words
and store up my commands within you,
2 turning your ear to wisdom
and applying your heart to understanding(B)—
3 indeed, if you call out for insight(C)
and cry aloud for understanding,
4 and if you look for it as for silver
and search for it as for hidden treasure,(D)
5 then you will understand the fear of the Lord
and find the knowledge of God.(E)
6 For the Lord gives wisdom;(F)
from his mouth come knowledge and understanding.(G)
7 He holds success in store for the upright,
he is a shield(H) to those whose walk is blameless,(I)
8 for he guards the course of the just
and protects the way of his faithful ones.(J)
9 Then you will understand(K) what is right and just
and fair—every good path.
10 For wisdom will enter your heart,(L)
and knowledge will be pleasant to your soul.
11 Discretion will protect you,
and understanding will guard you.(M)
12 Wisdom will save(N) you from the ways of wicked men,
from men whose words are perverse,
13 who have left the straight paths
to walk in dark ways,(O)
14 who delight in doing wrong
and rejoice in the perverseness of evil,(P)
15 whose paths are crooked(Q)
and who are devious in their ways.(R)
16 Wisdom will save you also from the adulterous woman,(S)
from the wayward woman with her seductive words,
17 who has left the partner of her youth
and ignored the covenant she made before God.[a](T)
18 Surely her house leads down to death
and her paths to the spirits of the dead.(U)
19 None who go to her return
or attain the paths of life.(V)

The Value of Wisdom
2 (A)My son, (B)if you receive my words
and treasure up my commandments with you,
2 making your ear attentive to wisdom
and inclining your heart to understanding;
3 yes, if you call out for insight
and raise your voice (C)for understanding,
4 if you seek it like (D)silver
and search for it as for (E)hidden treasures,
5 then (F)you will understand the fear of the Lord
and find the knowledge of God.
6 For (G)the Lord gives wisdom;
from his mouth come knowledge and understanding;
7 he stores up sound wisdom for the upright;
he is (H)a shield to those who (I)walk in integrity,
8 guarding the paths of justice
and (J)watching over the way of his (K)saints.
9 (L)Then you will understand (M)righteousness and justice
and equity, every good path;
10 for wisdom will come into your heart,
and knowledge will be pleasant to your soul;
11 (N)discretion will (O)watch over you,
understanding will guard you,
12 delivering you from the way of evil,
from men of perverted speech,
13 who forsake the paths of uprightness
to (P)walk in the ways of darkness,
14 who (Q)rejoice in doing evil
and (R)delight in the perverseness of evil,
15 men whose (S)paths are crooked,
(T)and who are (U)devious in their ways.
16 So (V)you will be delivered from the forbidden[a] woman,
from (W)the adulteress[b] with (X)her smooth words,
17 who forsakes (Y)the companion of her youth
and forgets (Z)the covenant of her God;
18 (AA)for her house sinks down to death,
and her paths to the departed;[c]
19 none who go to her come back,
nor do they regain the paths of life.
20 So you will walk in the way of the good
and keep to the paths of the righteous.
21 For the upright (AB)will inhabit the land,
and those with integrity will remain in it,
22 but the wicked will be (AC)cut off from the land,
and the treacherous will be (AD)rooted out of it.
