Proverbs 4 Verses
1
|
My children, listen to a father's teaching. Pay attention and gain understanding. |
2
|
I give you good advice. So don't turn away from what I teach you. |
3
|
I was once a young boy in my father's house. I was my mother's only child. |
4
|
My father taught me. He said, "Hold on to my words with all your heart. Keep my commands. Then you will live. |
5
|
Get wisdom. Get understanding. Don't forget my words. Don't turn away from them. |
6
|
Stay close to wisdom, and she will keep you safe. Love her, and she will watch over you. |
7
|
Wisdom is best. So get wisdom. No matter what it costs, get understanding. |
8
|
Value wisdom, and she will lift you up. Hold her close, and she will honor you. |
9
|
She will set a beautiful crown on your head. She will give you a glorious crown." |
10
|
My son, listen. Accept what I say. Then you will live for many years. |
11
|
I guide you in the way of wisdom. I lead you along straight paths. |
12
|
When you walk, nothing will slow you down. When you run, you won't trip and fall. |
13
|
Hold on to my teaching. Don't let it go. Guard it well. It is your life. |
14
|
Don't take the path of evil people. Don't live the way sinners do. |
15
|
Stay away from their path. Don't travel on it. Turn away from it. Go on your way. |
16
|
Sinners can't sleep until they do what is evil. They can't rest until they make someone fall. |
17
|
They do evil just as easily as they eat food. They hurt others as easily as they drink wine. |
18
|
The path of those who do what is right is like the first gleam of dawn. It shines brighter and brighter until the full light of day. |
19
|
But the way of those who do what is wrong is like deep darkness. They don't know what makes them trip and fall. |
20
|
My son, pay attention to what I say. Listen closely to my words. |
21
|
Don't let them out of your sight. Keep them in your heart. |
22
|
They are life to those who find them. They are health to your whole body. |
23
|
Above everything else, guard your heart. It is where your life comes from. |
24
|
Don't speak with twisted words. Keep evil talk away from your lips. |
25
|
Let your eyes look straight ahead. Keep looking right in front of you. |
26
|
Make level paths for your feet to walk on. Only go on ways that are firm. |
27
|
Don't turn to the right or left. Keep your feet from the path of evil. |
