Proverbs 3
3:1

My son, forget not my law; but let thine heart keep my commandments:

3:2

For length of days, and long life, and peace, shall they add to thee.

3:3

Let not mercy and truth forsake thee: bind them about thy neck; write them upon the table of thine heart:

3:4

So shalt thou find favour and good understanding in the sight of Elohim and man.

3:5

Trust in Yahweh with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.

3:6

In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.

3:7

Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear Yahweh, and depart from evil.

3:8

It shall be health to thy navel, and marrow to thy bones.

3:9

Honour Yahweh with thy substance, and with the firstfruits of all thine increase:

3:10

So shall thy barns be filled with plenty, and thy presses shall burst out with new wine.

3:11

My son, despise not the chastening of Yahweh; neither be weary of his correction:

3:12

For whom Yahweh loveth he correcteth; even as a father the son in whom he delighteth.

3:13

Happy is the man that findeth wisdom, and the man that getteth understanding.

3:14

For the merchandise of it is better than the merchandise of silver, and the gain thereof than fine gold.

3:15

She is more precious than rubies: and all the things thou canst desire are not to be compared unto her.

3:16

Length of days is in her right hand; and in her left hand riches and honour.

3:17

Her ways are ways of pleasantness, and all her paths are peace.

3:18

She is a tree of life to them that lay hold upon her: and happy is every one that retaineth her.

3:19

Yahweh by wisdom hath founded the earth; by understanding hath he established the heavens.

3:20

By his knowledge the depths are broken up, and the clouds drop down the dew.

3:21

My son, let not them depart from thine eyes: keep sound wisdom and discretion:

3:22

So shall they be life unto thy soul, and grace to thy neck.

3:23

Then shalt thou walk in thy way safely, and thy foot shall not stumble.

3:24

When thou liest down, thou shalt not be afraid: yea, thou shalt lie down, and thy sleep shall be sweet.

3:25

Be not afraid of sudden fear, neither of the desolation of the wicked, when it cometh.

3:26

For Yahweh shall be thy confidence, and shall keep thy foot from being taken.

3:27

Withhold not good from them to whom it is due, when it is in the power of thine hand to do it.

3:28

Say not unto thy neighbour, Go, and come again, and to morrow I will give; when thou hast it by thee.

3:29

Devise not evil against thy neighbour, seeing he dwelleth securely by thee.

3:30

Strive not with a man without cause, if he have done thee no harm.

3:31

Envy thou not the oppressor, and choose none of his ways.

3:32

For the froward is abomination to Yahweh: but his secret is with the righteous.

3:33

The curse of Yahweh is in the house of the wicked: but he blesseth the habitation of the just.

3:34

Surely he scorneth the scorners: but he giveth grace unto the lowly.

3:35

The wise shall inherit glory: but shame shall be the promotion of fools.
