3 Let not mercy and truth forsake you;Bind them around your neck,Write them on the tablet of your heart,
4 And so find favor and high esteemIn the sight of God and man.
5 Trust in the Lord with all your heart,And lean not on your own understanding;
6 In all your ways acknowledge Him,And He shall direct your paths.
7 Do not be wise in your own eyes;Fear the Lord and depart from evil.
8 It will be health to your flesh,And strength to your bones.
9 Honor the Lord with your possessions,And with the firstfruits of all your increase;
