Proverbs 3:1-8
Legacy Standard Bible

Trust, Fear, and Honor Yahweh

3 My son, (A)do not forget my [a]law,
But let your heart (B)guard my commandments;
2 For (C)length of days and years of life
And peace they will add to you.
3 Do not let (D)lovingkindness and truth forsake you;
(E)Bind them around your neck,
(F)Write them on the tablet of your heart.
4 So you will (G)find favor and (H)good insight
In the eyes of God and man.
5 (I)Trust in Yahweh with all your heart
And (J)do not lean on your own understanding.
6 In all your ways [b](K)acknowledge Him,
And He will (L)make your paths straight.
7 (M)Do not be wise in your own eyes;
(N)Fear Yahweh and turn away from evil.
8 It will be (O)healing to your [c]body
And (P)refreshment to your bones.

Or loathe His reproof,

Proverbs 3:21-26
Legacy Standard Bible

21 My son, (A)let them not deviate from your eyes;
Guard sound wisdom and discretion,
22 So they will be (B)life for your soul
And (C)grace for your neck.
23 Then you will (D)walk in your way securely
And your foot will not (E)stumble.
24 When you (F)lie down, you will not be in dread;
You will lie down, and your sleep will be pleasant.
25 (G)Do not be afraid of sudden dread
Nor of the (H)storm of the wicked when it comes;
26 For Yahweh will be [a]your confidence
And will (I)keep your foot from being caught.
