Proverbs 2:4 in context

The verses around it, from Proverbs 2.

1 My son, if you accept my words and hide my commandments within you,

2 if you incline your ear to wisdom and direct your heart to understanding,

3 if you truly call out to insight and lift your voice to understanding,

4 if you seek it like silver and search it out like hidden treasure,

5 then you will discern the fear of the LORD and discover the knowledge of God.

6 For the LORD gives wisdom; from His mouth come knowledge and understanding.

7 He stores up sound wisdom for the upright; He is a shield to those who walk with integrity,

8 to guard the paths of justice and protect the way of His saints.
