Give your servant therefore an
understanding mind to govern your
people, that I may discern between
good and evil, for who is able to
govern this your great people?”

My son, if you receive my words
and treasure up my commandments
with you, making your ear
attentive to wisdom and inclining
your heart to understanding; yes,
if you call out for insight and
raise your voice for
understanding, if you seek it like
silver and search for it as for
hidden treasures, then you will
understand the fear of the Lord
and find the knowledge of God.
