Proverbs (Old Testament)
2:1 - My son, if thou wilt receive my words, and hide my commandments with thee;
2:2 - So that thou incline thine ear unto wisdom, and apply thine heart to understanding;
2:3 - Yea, if thou criest after knowledge, and liftest up thy voice for understanding;
2:4 - If thou seekest her as silver, and searchest for her as for hid treasures;
2:5 - Then shalt thou understand the fear of the LORD, and find the knowledge of God.
2:6 - For the LORD giveth wisdom: out of his mouth cometh knowledge and understanding.
2:7 - He layeth up sound wisdom for the righteous: he is a buckler to them that walk uprightly.
2:8 - He keepeth the paths of judgment, and preserveth the way of his saints.
2:9 - Then shalt thou understand righteousness, and judgment, and equity; yea, every good path.
2:10 - When wisdom entereth into thine heart, and knowledge is pleasant unto thy soul;
2:11 - Discretion shall preserve thee, understanding shall keep thee:
2:12 - To deliver thee from the way of the evil man, from the man that speaketh froward things;
2:13 - Who leave the paths of uprightness, to walk in the ways of darkness;
2:14 - Who rejoice to do evil, and delight in the frowardness of the wicked;
2:15 - Whose ways are crooked, and they froward in their paths:
2:16 - To deliver thee from the strange woman, even from the stranger which flattereth with her words;
2:17 - Which forsaketh the guide of her youth, and forgetteth the covenant of her God.
2:18 - For her house inclineth unto death, and her paths unto the dead.
2:19 - None that go unto her return again, neither take they hold of the paths of life.
2:20 - That thou mayest walk in the way of good men, and keep the paths of the righteous.
2:21 - For the upright shall dwell in the land, and the perfect shall remain in it.
2:22 - But the wicked shall be cut off from the earth, and the transgressors shall be rooted out of it.

2 Peter (New Testament)
1:1 - Simon Peter, a servant and an apostle of Jesus Christ, to them that have obtained like precious faith with us through the righteousness of God and our Saviour Jesus Christ:
1:2 - Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord,
1:3 - According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue:
1:4 - Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.
1:5 - And beside this, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge;
1:6 - And to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and to patience godliness;
1:7 - And to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness charity.
1:8 - For if these things be in you, and abound, they make you that ye shall neither be barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.
1:9 - But he that lacketh these things is blind, and cannot see afar off, and hath forgotten that he was purged from his old sins.
1:10 - Wherefore the rather, brethren, give diligence to make your calling and election sure: for if ye do these things, ye shall never fall:
1:11 - For so an entrance shall be ministered unto you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.
1:12 - Wherefore I will not be negligent to put you always in remembrance of these things, though ye know them, and be established in the present truth.
1:13 - Yea, I think it meet, as long as I am in this tabernacle, to stir you up by putting you in remembrance;
1:14 - Knowing that shortly I must put off this my tabernacle, even as our Lord Jesus Christ hath shewed me.
1:15 - Moreover I will endeavour that ye may be able after my decease to have these things always in remembrance.
1:16 - For we have not followed cunningly devised fables, when we made known unto you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but were eyewitnesses of his majesty.
1:17 - For he received from God the Father honour and glory, when there came such a voice to him from the excellent glory, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.
1:18 - And this voice which came from heaven we heard, when we were with him in the holy mount.
1:19 - We have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts:
1:20 - Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation.
1:21 - For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.
