Proverbs
Chapters 3:7-13
New International Version Anglicized
7Do not be wise in your own eyes;fear the Lord and shun evil.
8This will bring health to your bodyand nourishment to your bones.
9Honour the Lord with your wealth,with the firstfruits of all your crops;
10then your barns will be filled to overflowing,and your vats will brim over with new wine.
11My son, do not despise the Lord’s discipline,and do not resent his rebuke,
12because the Lord disciplines those he loves,as a father the son he delights in.
13Blessed are those who find wisdom,those who gain understanding,
