'Lay' in the Bible

She is a tree of life to those who take hold of her,And happy [blessed, considered fortunate, to be admired] is everyone who holds her tightly.

My son, keep my wordsAnd treasure my commandments within you [so they are readily available to guide you].

The ants are not a strong people,Yet they prepare their food in the summer;

If you have foolishly exalted yourself,Or if you have plotted evil, put your hand on your mouth.
