Proverbs 3 Verses
1
|
My son, do not forget my teaching, but keep my commands in your heart, |
2
|
for they will prolong your life many years and bring you prosperity. |
3
|
Let love and faithfulness never leave you; bind them around your neck, write them on the tablet of your heart. |
4
|
Then you will win favour and a good name in the sight of God and man. |
5
|
Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; |
6
|
in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight. |
7
|
Do not be wise in your own eyes; fear the LORD and shun evil. |
8
|
This will bring health to your body and nourishment to your bones. |
9
|
Honour the LORD with your wealth, with the firstfruits of all your crops; |
10
|
then your barns will be filled to overflowing, and your vats will brim over with new wine. |
11
|
My son, do not despise the LORD's discipline and do not resent his rebuke, |
12
|
because the LORD disciplines those he loves, as a father the son he delights in. |
13
|
Blessed is the man who finds wisdom, the man who gains understanding, |
14
|
for she is more profitable than silver and yields better returns than gold. |
15
|
She is more precious than rubies; nothing you desire can compare with her. |
16
|
Long life is in her right hand; in her left hand are riches and honour. |
17
|
Her ways are pleasant ways, and all her paths are peace. |
18
|
She is a tree of life to those who embrace her; those who lay hold of her will be blessed. |
19
|
By wisdom the LORD laid the earth's foundations, by understanding he set the heavens in place; |
20
|
by his knowledge the deeps were divided, and the clouds let drop the dew. |
21
|
My son, preserve sound judgment and discernment, do not let them out of your sight; |
22
|
they will be life for you, an ornament to grace your neck. |
23
|
Then you will go on your way in safety, and your foot will not stumble; |
24
|
when you lie down, you will not be afraid; when you lie down, your sleep will be sweet. |
25
|
Have no fear of sudden disaster or of the ruin that overtakes the wicked, |
26
|
for the LORD will be your confidence and will keep your foot from being snared. |
27
|
Do not withhold good from those who deserve it, when it is in your power to act. |
28
|
Do not say to your neighbour, "Come back later; I'll give it tomorrow"--when you now have it with you. |
29
|
Do not plot harm against your neighbour, who lives trustfully near you. |
30
|
Do not accuse a man for no reason--when he has done you no harm. |
31
|
Do not envy a violent man or choose any of his ways, |
32
|
for the LORD detests a perverse man but takes the upright into his confidence. |
33
|
The LORD's curse is on the house of the wicked, but he blesses the home of the righteous. |
34
|
He mocks proud mockers but gives grace to the humble. |
35
|
The wise inherit honour, but fools he holds up to shame. |
