2 For many days, and years of life,and peace, will they bring you.
3 Do not let love and fidelity forsake you;bind them around your neck;write them on the tablet of your heart.
4 Then will you win favor and esteembefore God and human beings.
5 Trust in the Lord with all your heart,on your own intelligence do not rely;
6 In all your ways be mindful of him,and he will make straight your paths.
7 Do not be wise in your own eyes,fear the Lord and turn away from evil;
8 This will mean health for your fleshand vigor for your bones.
