Proverbs2:7
7. He layeth up sound wisdom for the righteous: he is a buckler to them that walk uprightly.
Heb. Essence or substance, either 1. solid and true felicity, opposed to the vain enjoyments of this World, which are said to have no substance or being, Prov. 23. 5. or 2. true and substantial Wisdom, which is satisfactory and everlasting; opposed to worldly Wisdom, which is but an empty shadow of Wisdom, and perisheth with us.
To protect and save them from that mischief and ruine which shall befall all wicked men.
