Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the LORD, and depart from evil.
It shall be health to thy navel, and marrow to thy bones.
Honour the LORD with thy substance, and with the firstfruits of all thine increase:
So shall thy barns be filled with plenty, and thy presses shall burst out with new wine.
My son, despise not the chastening of the LORD; neither be weary of his correction:
For whom the LORD loveth he correcteth; even as a father the son [in whom] he delighteth.
Happy [is] the man [that] findeth wisdom, and the man [that] getteth understanding.
For the merchandise of it [is] better than the merchandise of silver, and the gain thereof than fine gold.
She [is] more precious than rubies: and all the things thou canst desire are not to be compared unto her.
Length of days [is] in her right hand; [and] in her left hand riches and honour.
