Verse
Proverbs - ch 3 v 1 - 20
- My son, forget not my teaching, and let thy heart observe my commandments;
- for length of days, and years of life, and peace shall they add to thee.
- Let not loving-kindness and truth forsake thee; bind them about thy neck, write them upon the tablet of thy heart:
- and thou shalt find favour and good understanding in the sight of God and man.
- Confide in Jehovah with all thy heart, and lean not unto thine own intelligence;
- in all thy ways acknowledge him, and he will make plain thy paths.
- Be not wise in thine own eyes; fear Jehovah, and depart from evil:
- it shall be health for thy navel, and moisture for thy bones.
- Honour Jehovah with thy substance, and with the first-fruits of all thine increase;
- so shall thy barns be filled with plenty, and thy vats shall overflow with new wine.
- My son, despise not the instruction of Jehovah, neither be weary of his chastisement;
- for whom Jehovah loveth he chasteneth, even as a father the son in whom he delighteth.
- Blessed is the man that findeth wisdom, and the man that getteth understanding.
- For the gain thereof is better than the gain of silver, and her revenue than fine gold.
- She is more precious than rubies; and all the things thou canst desire are not equal unto her.
- Length of days is in her right hand; in her left hand riches and honour.
- Her ways are ways of pleasantness, and all her paths are peace.
- She is a tree of life to them that lay hold upon her; and happy is he that retaineth her.
- Jehovah by wisdom founded the earth; by understanding he established the heavens.
- By his knowledge the deeps were broken up, and the skies drop down the dew.
