Description

Blessed is the one who finds wisdom...

Proverbs

3 1 My child, do not forget my teaching, but let your heart keep my commandments,
2 for they will provide a long and full life, and they will add well-being to you.
3 Do not let truth and mercy leave you; bind them around your neck, write them on the tablet of your heart.
4 Then you will find favor and good understanding, in the sight of God and people.
5 Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and do not rely on your own understanding.
6 Acknowledge him in all your ways, and he will make your paths straight.

7 Do not be wise in your own estimation; fear the LORD and turn away from evil.
8 This will bring healing to your body, and refreshment to your inner self.
9 Honor the LORD from your wealth and from the first fruits of all your crops;
10 then your barns will be filled completely, and your vats will overflow with new wine.
11 My child, do not despise discipline from the Lord, and do not loathe his rebuke.
12 For the LORD disciplines those he loves, just as a father disciplines the son in whom he delights.

13 Blessed is the one who finds wisdom, and the one who obtains understanding.
14 For her benefit is more profitable than silver, and her gain is better than gold.
15 She is more precious than rubies, and none of the things you desire can compare with her.
16 Long life is in her right hand; in her left hand are riches and honor.
17 Her ways are very pleasant, and all her paths are peaceful.
18 She is like a tree of life to those who obtain her, and everyone who grasps hold of her will be blessed.
