1 - My son, do not forget my teaching, but keep my commands in your heart,
2 - for they will prolong your life many years and bring you prosperity.
3 - Let love and faithfulness never leave you; bind them around your neck, write them on the tablet of your heart.
4 - Then you will win favor and a good name in the sight of God and man.
5 - Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding;
6 - in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight.
7 - Do not be wise in your own eyes; fear the LORD and shun evil.
8 - This will bring health to your body and nourishment to your bones.
9 - Honor the LORD with your wealth, with the firstfruits of all your crops;
10 - then your barns will be filled to overflowing, and your vats will brim over with new wine.
11 - My son, do not despise the LORD's discipline and do not resent his rebuke,
12 - because the LORD disciplines those he loves, as a father the son he delights in.

18 - She is a tree of life to those who embrace her; those who lay hold of her will be blessed.
19 - By wisdom the LORD laid the earth's foundations, by understanding he set the heavens in place;
20 - by his knowledge the deeps were divided, and the clouds let drop the dew.
21 - My son, preserve sound judgment and discernment, do not let them out of your sight;
22 - they will be life for you, an ornament to grace your neck.
23 - Then you will go on your way in safety, and your foot will not stumble;
24 - when you lie down, you will not be afraid; when you lie down, your sleep will be sweet.
25 - Have no fear of sudden disaster or of the ruin that overtakes the wicked,
26 - for the LORD will be your confidence and will keep your foot from being snared.

30 - Do not accuse a man for no reason- when he has done you no harm.
31 - Do not envy a violent man or choose any of his ways,
32 - for the LORD detests a perverse man but takes the upright into his confidence.
