Chapter 3
| 3:1 | My son, forget not my law; but let thine heart keep my commandments: |
| 3:2 | For length of days, and long life, and peace, shall they add to thee. |
| 3:3 | Let not mercy and truth forsake thee: bind them about thy neck; write them upon the table of thine heart: |
| 3:4 | So shalt thou find favour and good understanding in the sight of God and man. |
| 3:5 | Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. |
| 3:6 | In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. |
| 3:7 | Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the LORD, and depart from evil. |
| 3:8 | It shall be health to thy navel, and marrow to thy bones. |
| 3:9 | Honour the LORD with thy substance, and with the firstfruits of all thine increase: |
| 3:10 | So shall thy barns be filled with plenty, and thy presses shall burst out with new wine. |
| 3:11 | My son, despise not the chastening of the LORD; neither be weary of his correction: |
| 3:12 | For whom the LORD loveth he correcteth; even as a father the son in whom he delighteth. |
| 3:13 | Happy is the man that findeth wisdom, and the man that getteth understanding. |
| 3:14 | For the merchandise of it is better than the merchandise of silver, and the gain thereof than fine gold. |
| 3:15 | She is more precious than rubies: and all the things thou canst desire are not to be compared unto her. |
| 3:16 | Length of days is in her right hand; and in her left hand riches and honour. |
| 3:17 | Her ways are ways of pleasantness, and all her paths are peace. |
| 3:18 | She is a tree of life to them that lay hold upon her: and happy is every one that retaineth her. |
| 3:19 | The LORD by wisdom hath founded the earth; by understanding hath he established the heavens. |
| 3:20 | By his knowledge the depths are broken up, and the clouds drop down the dew. |
| 3:21 | My son, let not them depart from thine eyes: keep sound wisdom and discretion: |
| 3:22 | So shall they be life unto thy soul, and grace to thy neck. |
| 3:23 | Then shalt thou walk in thy way safely, and thy foot shall not stumble. |
| 3:24 | When thou liest down, thou shalt not be afraid: yea, thou shalt lie down, and thy sleep shall be sweet. |
| 3:25 | Be not afraid of sudden fear, neither of the desolation of the wicked, when it cometh. |
| 3:26 | For the LORD shall be thy confidence, and shall keep thy foot from being taken. |
| 3:27 | Withhold not good from them to whom it is due, when it is in the power of thine hand to do it. |
| 3:28 | Say not unto thy neighbour, Go, and come again, and to morrow I will give; when thou hast it by thee. |
| 3:29 | Devise not evil against thy neighbour, seeing he dwelleth securely by thee. |
| 3:30 | Strive not with a man without cause, if he have done thee no harm. |
| 3:31 | Envy thou not the oppressor, and choose none of his ways. |
| 3:32 | For the froward is abomination to the LORD: but his secret is with the righteous. |
| 3:33 | The curse of the LORD is in the house of the wicked: but he blesseth the habitation of the just. |
| 3:34 | Surely he scorneth the scorners: but he giveth grace unto the lowly. |
| 3:35 | The wise shall inherit glory: but shame shall be the promotion of fools. |
