Proverbs 3:1-10 ▼

1 My son, do not forget my law, But let your heart guard my commandments;

2 For length of days and years of life And peace they will add to you.

3 Do not let lovingkindness and truth forsake you; Bind them around your neck, Write them on the tablet of your heart.

4 So you will find favor and good insight In the eyes of God and man.

5 Trust in Yahweh with all your heart And do not lean 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 Yahweh and turn away from evil.

8 It will be healing to your body And refreshment to your bones.

9 Honor Yahweh from your wealth And from the first of all your produce;

10 So your barns will be filled with plenty And your vats will burst with new wine.
