Proverbs 3:19-26

19The Lord 1by wisdom founded the earth, By understanding He 2established the heavens.20By His knowledge the 3deeps were broken up And the 4skies drip with dew.21My son, 5let them not 6vanish from your sight; Keep sound wisdom and discretion,22So they will be 7life to your soul And 8adornment to your neck.23Then you will 9walk in your way securely And your foot will not 10stumble.24When you 11lie down, you will not be afraid; When you lie down, your sleep will be sweet.2512Do not be afraid of sudden fear Nor of the 1314onslaught of the wicked when it comes;26For the Lord will be 15your confidence And will 16keep your foot from being caught.
