Proverbs 3:5 (5/6)

It is a snare for a man to devote rashly something as holy, And afterward to reconsider his vows.It is a snare for one to say rashly, “It is holy,” and begin to reflect only after making a vow.
Every way of a man is right in his own eyes, But the Lord weighs the hearts.All deeds are right in the sight of the doer, but the Lord weighs the heart.
To do righteousness and justice Is more acceptable to the Lord than sacrifice.To do righteousness and justice is more acceptable to the Lord than sacrifice.
He who follows righteousness and mercy Finds life, righteousness, and honor.Whoever pursues righteousness and kindness will find life and honor.
He covets greedily all day long, But the righteous gives and does not spare.All day long the wicked covet, but the righteous give and do not hold back.
A good name is to be chosen rather than great riches, Loving favor rather than silver and gold.A good name is to be chosen rather than great riches, and favor is better than silver or gold.
By humility and the fear of the Lord Are riches and honor and life.The reward for humility and fear of the Lord is riches and honor and life.
Train up a child in the way he should go, And when he is old he will not depart from it.Train children in the right way, and when old, they will not stray.
The rich rules over the poor, And the borrower is servant to the lender.The rich rules over the poor, and the borrower is the slave of the lender.
Do not overwork to be rich; Because of your own understanding, cease!Do not wear yourself out to get rich; be wise enough to desist.
Will you set your eyes on that which is not? For riches certainly make themselves wings; They fly away like an eagle toward heaven.When your eyes light upon it, it is gone; for suddenly it takes wings to itself, flying like an eagle toward heaven.
My son, if your heart is wise, My heart will rejoice—indeed, I myself.My child, if your heart is wise, my heart too will be glad.
The father of the righteous will greatly rejoice, And he who begets a wise child will delight in him.The father of the righteous will greatly rejoice; he who begets a wise son will be glad in him.
So shall the knowledge of wisdom be to your soul; If you have found it, there is a prospect, And your hope will not be cut off.Know that wisdom is such to your soul; if you find it, you will find a future, and your hope will not be cut off.
Whoever has no rule over his own spirit Is like a city broken down, without walls.Like a city breached, without walls, is one who lacks self-control.
Do not forsake your own friend or your father’s friend, Nor go to your brother’s house in the day of your calamity; Better is a neighbor nearby than a brother far away.Do not forsake your friend or the friend of your parent; do not go to the house of your kindred in the day of your calamity. Better is a neighbor who is nearby than kindred who are far away.
A prudent man foresees evil and hides himself; The simple pass on and are punished.The clever see danger and hide; but the simple go on, and suffer for it.
As iron sharpens iron, So a man sharpens the countenance of his friend.Iron sharpens iron, and one person sharpens the wits of another.
As in water face reflects face, So a man’s heart reveals the man.Just as water reflects the face, so one human heart reflects another.
One who turns away his ear from hearing the law, Even his prayer is an abomination.When one will not listen to the law, even one's prayers are an abomination.
He who covers his sins will not prosper, But whoever confesses and forsakes them will have mercy.No one who conceals transgressions will prosper, but one who confesses and forsakes them will obtain mercy.
A fool vents all his feelings, But a wise man holds them back.A fool gives full vent to anger, but the wise quietly holds it back.
A man’s pride will bring him low, But the humble in spirit will retain honor.A person's pride will bring humiliation, but one who is lowly in spirit will obtain honor.
The fear of man brings a snare, But whoever trusts in the Lord shall be safe.The fear of others lays a snare, but one who trusts in the Lord is secure.
Every word of God is pure; He is a shield to those who put their trust in Him.Every word of God proves true; he is a shield to those who take refuge in him.

Remove falsehood and lies far from me; Give me neither poverty nor riches— Feed me with the food allotted to me.Remove far from me falsehood and lying; give me neither poverty nor riches; feed me with the food that I need.

Again, I saw that for all toil and every skillful work a man is envied by his neighbor. This also is vanity and grasping for the wind.
