“Wisdom. Evil.”
“Wisdom. Evil.”
Blessings folk!
The next portion of Proverbs 2 is a single sentence over several verses.
It is a bit of a synopsis, then it gives insight into some things.
For today, read the sentence.
Note who the main characters are…
Pro 2:10-19
For wisdom will enter your heart
And knowledge will be pleasant to your soul;
Discretion will guard you,
Understanding will watch over you,
To deliver you from the way of evil,
From the man who speaks perverse things;
From those who leave the paths of uprightness
To walk in the ways of darkness;
Who delight in doing evil
And rejoice in the perversity of evil;
Whose paths are crooked,
And who are devious in their ways;
To deliver you from the strange woman,
From the adulteress who flatters with her words;
That leaves the companion of her youth
And forgets the covenant of her God;
For her house sinks down to death
And her tracks lead to the dead;
None who go to her return again,
Nor do they reach the paths of life.
Who is mentioned?
- those who seek wisdom
- those who leave the path of uprightness
- the strange woman
Which are you?
