2:6 For ¹  the Lord gives ²  wisdom,

and from his mouth ³  comes ⁴  knowledge and understanding.

2:7 He stores up ⁵  effective counsel ⁶  for the upright, ⁷ 

and is like ⁸  a shield ⁹  for those who live ¹⁰  with integrity, ¹¹ 

2:8 to guard ¹²  the paths of the righteous ¹³ 

and to protect ¹⁴  the way of his pious ones. ¹⁵ 

2:9 Then you will understand ¹⁶  righteousness and justice

and equity – every ¹⁷  good ¹⁸  way. ¹⁹
