Proverbs 4:6

New International Version

Do not forsake wisdom, and she will protect you; love her, and she will watch over you.

See the chapter Copy

My son, do not let wisdom and understanding out of your sight, preserve sound judgment and discretion;

I love those who love me, and those who seek me find me.

so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love,

and all the ways that wickedness deceives those who are perishing. They perish because they refused to love the truth and so be saved.
