2 For they shall set before you length of days, and years of life, and peace.
3 Let not mercy and truth abandon you: encircle them around your throat, and inscribe them on the tablets of your heart.
4 And so shall you discover grace and good discipline, in the sight of God and men.
5 Have confidence in the Lord with all your heart, and do not depend upon your own prudence.
6 In all your ways, consider him, and he himself will direct your steps.
7 Do not seem wise to yourself. Fear God, and withdraw from evil.
8 Certainly, it shall be health to your navel, and refreshment to your bones.
