Proverbs

⁷Be not wise in thine own eyes; fear the LORD, and depart from evil: ⁸It shall be health to thy navel, and marrow to thy bones. ⁹Honour the LORD with thy substance, and with the firstfruits of all thine increase: ¹⁰So shall thy barns be filled with plenty, and thy vats shall overflow with new wine. ¹¹My son, despise not the chastening of the LORD; neither be weary of his reproof: ¹²For whom the LORD loveth he reproveth; even as a father the son in whom he delighteth. ¹³Happy is the man that findeth wisdom, and the man that getteth understanding.
