- My son, do not forget my law,
But let your heart keep my commands;
For length of days and long life
And peace they will add to you. - Let not mercy and truth forsake you;
Bind them around your neck,
Write them on the tablet of your heart,
And so find favor and high esteem
In the sight of God and man. - Trust in the Lord with all your heart,
And lean not on your own understanding;
In all your ways acknowledge Him,
And He shall direct your paths. - Do not be wise in your own eyes;
Fear the Lord and depart from evil.
It will be health to your flesh,
And strength to your bones. - Honor the Lord with your possessions,
And with the firstfruits of all your increase. - My son, do not despise the chastening of the Lord,
Nor detest His correction;
For whom the Lord loves He corrects,
Just as a father the son in whom he delights. - Happy is the man who finds wisdom,
And the man who gains understanding. - Do not withhold good from those to whom it is due,
When it is in the power of your hand to do so. - Do not envy the oppressor,
And choose none of his ways;
For the perverse person is an abomination to the Lord,
But His secret counsel is with the upright.
