20 With his knowledge, he made springs flow into riversand the clouds drop rain on the earth.
21 My child, hold on to wisdom and good sense.Don’t let them out of your sight.
22 They will give you lifeand beauty like a necklace around your neck.
23 Then you will go your way in safety,and you will not get hurt.
24 When you lie down, you won’t be afraid;when you lie down, you will sleep in peace.
25 You won’t be afraid of sudden trouble;you won’t fear the ruin that comes to the wicked,
26 because the Lord will keep you safe.He will keep you from being trapped.
