Proverbs  


3 : 1 My son, do not forget my teaching, But let your heart keep my commandments;
3 : 2 For length of days and years of life And peace they will add to you.
3 : 3 Do not let kindness and truth leave you; Bind them around your neck, Write them on the tablet of your heart.
3 : 4 So you will find favor and good repute In the sight of God and man.
3 : 5 Trust in the LORD with all your heart And do not lean on your own understanding.
3 : 6 In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He will make your paths straight.
3 : 7 Do not be wise in your own eyes; Fear the LORD and turn away from evil.
3 : 8 It will be healing to your body And refreshment to your bones.
3 : 9 Honor the LORD from your wealth And from the first of all your produce;
3 : 10 So your barns will be filled with plenty And your vats will overflow with new wine.
3 : 11 My son, do not reject the discipline of the LORD Or loathe His reproof,
3 : 12 For whom the LORD loves He reproves, Even as a father corrects the son in whom he delights.
3 : 13 How blessed is the man who finds wisdom And the man who gains understanding.
3 : 14 For her profit is better than the profit of silver And her gain better than fine gold.
3 : 15 She is more precious than jewels; And nothing you desire compares with her.
3 : 16 Long life is in her right hand; In her left hand are riches and honor.
3 : 17 Her ways are pleasant ways And all her paths are peace.
3 : 18 She is a tree of life to those who take hold of her, And happy are all who hold her fast.
3 : 19 The LORD by wisdom founded the earth, By understanding He established the heavens.
3 : 20 By His knowledge the deeps were broken up And the skies drip with dew.
3 : 21 My son, let them not vanish from your sight; Keep sound wisdom and discretion,
3 : 22 So they will be life to your soul And adornment to your neck.
3 : 23 Then you will walk in your way securely And your foot will not stumble.
3 : 24 When you lie down, you will not be afraid; When you lie down, your sleep will be sweet.
3 : 25 Do not be afraid of sudden fear Nor of the onslaught of the wicked when it comes;
3 : 26 For the LORD will be your confidence And will keep your foot from being caught.
3 : 27 Do not withhold good from those to whom it is due, When it is in your power to do it.
3 : 28 Do not say to your neighbor, "Go, and come back, And tomorrow I will give it," When you have it with you.
3 : 29 Do not devise harm against your neighbor, While he lives securely beside you.
3 : 30 Do not contend with a man without cause, If he has done you no harm.
3 : 31 Do not envy a man of violence And do not choose any of his ways.
3 : 32 For the devious are an abomination to the LORD; But He is intimate with the upright.
3 : 33 The curse of the LORD is on the house of the wicked, But He blesses the dwelling of the righteous.
3 : 34 Though He scoffs at the scoffers, Yet He gives grace to the afflicted.
3 : 35 The wise will inherit honor, But fools display dishonor.
