Proverbs 3:1-10 ▼

1 My sonne, forget not thou my lawe, but see that thine heart kepe my commaundementes:

2 For they shal prolong the dayes and yeres of thy lyfe, and bryng thee peace.

3 Let mercie and faithfulnesse neuer go from thee: binde them about thy necke, and write them in the tables of thyne heart:

4 So shalt thou finde fauour and good vnderstandyng in the sight of God and men.

5 Put thy trust in God with all thine heart: & leane not vnto thine owne wit:

6 In all thy wayes acknowledge him, and he shall order thy goynges.

7 Be not wise in thine owne conceipt: but feare the Lorde, and depart from euyll:

8 So shall thy nauell be whole, and thy bones strong.

9 Honour the Lorde with thy substaunce, and with the firstlynges of all thyne encrease:

10 So shall thy barnes be filled with plenteousnesse, and thy presses shall flowe ouer with sweete wine.
