Proverbs 3:1-10 - Wisdom And Piety

¹ My son, forget not my law, but see that thine heart keep my commandments. ² For they shall prolong the days and years of thy life, and bring thee peace. ³ Let mercy and faithfulness never go from thee: bind them about thy neck, and write them in the tables of thine heart. ⁴ So shalt thou find favor and good understanding in the sight of God and men.

⁵ Put thy trust in the LORD with all thine heart, and lean not unto thine own understanding. ⁶ In all thy ways have respect unto him, and he shall order thy goings. ⁷ Be not wise in thine own conceit, but fear the LORD, and depart from evil: ⁸ so shall thy navel be whole, and thy bones strong. ⁹ Honour the LORD with thy substance, and with the firstlings of all thine increase: ¹⁰ So shall thy barns be filled with plenteousness, and thy presses shall flow over with sweet wine.
