Proverbs 3:19-35
19Jehovah by wisdom founded the earth;By understanding he established the heavens.20By his knowledge the depths were broken up,And the skies drop down the dew.21My son, let them not depart from thine eyes;Keep sound wisdom and discretion:22So shall they be life unto thy soul,And grace to thy neck.23Then shalt thou walk in thy way securely,And thy foot shall not stumble.24When thou liest down, thou shalt not be afraid:Yea, thou shalt lie down, and thy sleep shall be sweet.25Be not afraid of sudden fear,Neither of the desolation of the wicked, when it cometh:26For Jehovah will be thy confidence,And will keep thy foot from being taken.27Withhold not good from them to whom it is due,When it is in the power of thy hand to do it.28Say not unto thy neighbor, Go, and come again,And to-morrow I will give;When thou hast it by thee.29Devise not evil against thy neighbor,Seeing he dwelleth securely by thee.30Strive not with a man without cause,If he have done thee no harm.31Envy thou not the man of violence,And choose none of his ways.32For the perverse is an abomination to Jehovah;But his friendship is with the upright.33The curse of Jehovah is in the house of the wicked;But he blesseth the habitation of the righteous.34Surely he scoffeth at the scoffers;But he giveth grace unto the lowly.35The wise shall inherit glory;But shame shall be the promotion of fools.
