Remind me each morning of your constant love, for I put my trust in you. My prayers go up to you; show me the way I should go.

I go to you for protection, Lord ; rescue me from my enemies.

Because of your love for me, kill my enemies and destroy all my oppressors, for I am your servant.

Praise the Lord , my protector! He trains me for battle and prepares me for war.

He is my protector and defender, my shelter and savior, in whom I trust for safety. He subdues the nations under me.

Praise him for the mighty things he has done. Praise his supreme greatness.

To have knowledge, you must first have reverence for the Lord . Stupid people have no respect for wisdom and refuse to learn.

but people like that are setting a trap for themselves, a trap in which they will die.

Then you will call for wisdom, but I will not answer. You may look for me everywhere, but you will not find me.

Yes, beg for knowledge; plead for insight.

Look for it as hard as you would for silver or some hidden treasure.
