TRV
Proverbs 3:1-12
1
¶ My son, forget not my law; but let thine heart keep my commandments:
2
For length of days, and long life, and peace, shall they add to thee.
3
Let not mercy and truth forsake thee: bind them about thy neck; write them upon the table of thine heart:
4
So shalt thou find favour and good understanding in the sight of God and man.
5
Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.
6
In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.
7
¶ Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the LORD, and depart from evil.
8
It shall be health to thy navel, and marrow to thy bones.
9
Honour the LORD with thy substance, and with the firstfruits of all thine increase:
10
So shall thy barns be filled with plenty, and thy presses shall burst out with new wine.
11
My son, despise not the chastening of the LORD; neither be weary of his correction:
12
For whom the LORD loveth he correcteth; even as a father the son in whom he delighteth.
