1 My son, if you accept what I say and value my instructions,
1 My son, if you will receive my words, and store up my commandments within you,
2 if you pay attention to wisdom and really try to understand;
2 so as to turn your ear to wisdom, and apply your heart to understanding;
3 if you cry out for insight and call loudly for help in understanding;
3 yes, if you call out for discernment, and lift up your voice for understanding;
4 if you look for it as if it were silver and search for it as if it were hidden treasure;
4 if you seek her as silver, and search for her as for hidden treasures;
5 then you will understand how to relate to the Lord and discover the truth about God.
5 then you will understand the fear of Yahweh, and find the knowledge of God.
6 The Lord is the source of wisdom; what he says provides knowledge that makes sense.
6 For Yahweh gives wisdom. Out of his mouth comes knowledge and understanding.
7 He gives good judgment to those who live right; he defends those who have good sense.
7 He lays up sound wisdom for the upright. He is a shield to those who walk in integrity,
8 He supports those who act fairly and protects those who trust in him.
8 that he may guard the paths of justice, and preserve the way of his saints.
9 Then you will be able to recognize what is right and just and fair, in fact all that is good in the way you should live.
9 Then you will understand righteousness and justice, equity and every good path.
10 For wisdom will fill your mind, and knowledge will make you happy.
10 For wisdom will enter into your heart. Knowledge will be pleasant to your soul.
11 Good decisions will keep you on track; thinking logically will keep you safe.
11 Discretion will watch over you. Understanding will keep you,
12 Doing this will save you from the ways of evil, from men who tell twisted lies,
12 to deliver you from the way of evil, from the men who speak perverse things,
13 who turn away from following what is right to walk down paths of darkness.
13 who forsake the paths of uprightness, to walk in the ways of darkness,
14 They happily do wrong; they love how twisted evil is.
14 who rejoice to do evil, and delight in the perverseness of evil,
15 They live crooked lives doing deceitful things.
15 who are crooked in their ways, and wayward in their paths,
16 Doing this will also save you from a woman who acts immorally, from a woman who like a prostitute tries to seduce you with flattering words.
16 to deliver you from the strange woman, even from the foreigner who flatters with her words,
17 Such a woman has left her husband she married when she was young, forgetting the promises she made before God.
17 who forsakes the friend of her youth, and forgets the covenant of her God;
18 What happens in her house leads to death; following her way leads to the grave.
18 for her house leads down to death, her paths to the departed spirits.
19 No one who goes to her comes back; they don't ever find the way back to life again.
19 None who go to her return again, neither do they attain to the paths of life.
20 So you should follow the way of the good, and make sure you stay on the paths of those who do right.
20 Therefore walk in the way of good men, and keep the paths of the righteous.
21 For only people who live right will live in the land; only honest people will remain there.
21 For the upright will dwell in the land. The perfect will remain in it.
22 But the wicked will be thrown out of the land; those who are untrustworthy will be pulled out by the roots.
22 But the wicked will be cut off from the land. The treacherous will be rooted out of it.

Lo que dijeron los Padres
Pasajes de los Padres de la Iglesia que comentan o citan este capítulo, tal como aparecen en la edición de Schaff (traducciones inglesas del siglo XIX, de dominio público). Los textos están en inglés.
Cómo se eligieron
«Comentario» es el comienzo de una homilía o exposición sobre este capítulo (homilías de san Juan Crisóstomo; tratados, sermones y comentarios a los Salmos de san Agustín). «Cita» es una frase en la que las notas de la propia edición identifican la cita de un versículo de este capítulo; solo se conserva si el texto coincide con el versículo. Solo se usan obras de autoría segura. Los Salmos siguen la numeración hebrea (Agustín usa la de los Setenta: su Salmo 50 es aquí el 51).
For in these very books on the study of which they are intent, they read, "The Lord giveth wisdom: out of His mouth cometh knowledge and understanding;" and it is from Him they have received their very desire for knowledge, if it is wedded to piety.
