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 God and man.
3:5 Trust in the LORD 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 the LORD, and depart
from evil.
3:8 It shall be health to thy navel, and marrow to thy bones.
3:9 Honour the LORD 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 the LORD; neither
be weary of his correction:
3:12 For whom the LORD 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 The LORD 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 the LORD 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 the LORD: but his
secret [is] with the righteous.
3:33 The curse of the LORD [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.
