Exegesis
The conjunction wə {וְ֝ | wə} then links da‘at {דַ֗עַת | daʿat} ‘knowledge’ to the verb yinʿām {יִנְעָֽם | yinʿām} ‘will be pleasant’, with lə-napšê-kha {לְֽנַפְשְׁךָ֥ | lə-nap̄šê-kā} ‘to your soul’ marking the experiencer. This chiastic parallelism of entry and delight highlights the inward transformation that wisdom and knowledge bring.
In context — Proverbs 2:10
For wisdom will come into your heart , and knowledge will be pleasant to your soul .
