Proverbs

⁹Honor the Lord with your wealth and the first part of your harvest. ¹⁰Then your barns will be full of grain, and your barrels will be overflowing with wine. ¹¹My son, don’t reject the Lord’S discipline, and don’t be angry when he corrects you. ¹²The Lord corrects the one he loves, just as a father corrects a child he cares about. ¹³Those who find wisdom are fortunate; they will be blessed when they gain understanding. ¹⁴Profit that comes from wisdom is better than silver and even the finest gold. ¹⁵Wisdom is worth more than fine jewels. Nothing you desire has more value.
