Bible verses - ESV
English Standard Version (ESV)
Translation
Commit your work to the Lord,
and your plans will be established.
Let not steadfast love and faithfulness forsake you;
bind them around your neck;
write them on the tablet of your heart.
So you will find favor and good success
in the sight of God and man.
Whoever covers an offense seeks love,
but he who repeats a matter separates close friends.
Trust in the Lord with all your heart,
and do not lean on your own understanding.
In all your ways acknowledge him,
and he will make straight your paths.
My son, keep your father's commandment,
and forsake not your mother's teaching.
A man's gift makes room for him
and brings him before the great.
Train up a child in the way he should go;
even when he is old he will not depart from it.
Whoever pursues righteousness and kindness
will find life, righteousness, and honor.
Whoever brings blessing will be enriched,
and one who waters will himself be watered.
Whoever is slow to anger has great understanding,
but he who has a hasty temper exalts folly.
