Proverbs22:21

21 That I may make thee know the certainty of the words of truth ; that thou mightest answer the words of truth to them that send unto thee ?

That I may teach thee, not false, or vain, or uncertain things, as the Teachers of the Heathen Nations do, but the true and infallible Oracles of God.

That being instructed by me, thou maist be able to give true, and solid, and satisfactory answers.

To wit, for thine advice in great and difficult matters. Or, to those that send thee, i. e. that employ thee in any business of moment, whereof they expect an account from thee.

Marginal references: Or, to those that send thee.
