| 2 | For they shall set before you length of days, and years of life, and peace. | for length of days and years of life and peace they will add to you. | for they will prolong your life many years and bring you peace and prosperity. | |
| 3 | Let not mercy and truth abandon you: encircle them around your throat, and inscribe them on the tablets of your heart. | Let not steadfast love and faithfulness forsake you; bind them around your neck; write them on the tablet of your heart. | Let love and faithfulness never leave you; bind them around your neck, write them on the tablet of your heart. | |
| 4 | And so shall you discover grace and good discipline, in the sight of God and men. | So you will find favor and good success in the sight of God and man. | Then you will win favor and a good name in the sight of God and man. | |
| 5 | Have confidence in the Lord with all your heart, and do not depend upon your own prudence. | Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. | Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; | |
| 6 | In all your ways, consider him, and he himself will direct your steps. | In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths. | in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight. | |
