Proverbs 4 Verses
1
|
My children, listen when your father corrects you. Pay attention and learn good judgment, |
2
|
for I am giving you good guidance. Don't turn away from my instructions. |
3
|
For I, too, was once my father's son, tenderly loved as my mother's only child. |
4
|
My father taught me, "Take my words to heart. Follow my commands, and you will live. |
5
|
Get wisdom; develop good judgment. Don't forget my words or turn away from them. |
6
|
Don't turn your back on wisdom, for she will protect you. Love her, and she will guard you. |
7
|
Getting wisdom is the wisest thing you can do! And whatever else you do, develop good judgment. |
8
|
If you prize wisdom, she will make you great. Embrace her, and she will honor you. |
9
|
She will place a lovely wreath on your head; she will present you with a beautiful crown." |
10
|
My child, listen to me and do as I say, and you will have a long, good life. |
11
|
I will teach you wisdom's ways and lead you in straight paths. |
12
|
When you walk, you won't be held back; when you run, you won't stumble. |
13
|
Take hold of my instructions; don't let them go. Guard them, for they are the key to life. |
14
|
Don't do as the wicked do, and don't follow the path of evildoers. |
15
|
Don't even think about it; don't go that way. Turn away and keep moving. |
16
|
For evil people can't sleep until they've done their evil deed for the day. They can't rest until they've caused someone to stumble. |
17
|
They eat the food of wickedness and drink the wine of violence! |
18
|
The way of the righteous is like the first gleam of dawn, which shines ever brighter until the full light of day. |
19
|
But the way of the wicked is like total darkness. They have no idea what they are stumbling over. |
20
|
My child, pay attention to what I say. Listen carefully to my words. |
21
|
Don't lose sight of them. Let them penetrate deep into your heart, |
22
|
for they bring life to those who find them, and healing to their whole body. |
23
|
Guard your heart above all else, for it determines the course of your life. |
24
|
Avoid all perverse talk; stay away from corrupt speech. |
25
|
Look straight ahead, and fix your eyes on what lies before you. |
26
|
Mark out a straight path for your feet; stay on the safe path. |
27
|
Don't get sidetracked; keep your feet from following evil. |
