18 She is a tree of life to those taking hold of her, And blessed are all who retain her.
19 יהוה founded the earth by wisdom; He established the heavens by understanding;
20 By His knowledge the depths were broken up, And clouds drop down dew.
21 My son, let them not depart from your eyes; Watch over sound wisdom and discretion;
22 Then they become life to your being And an adorning to your neck.
23 Then you would walk safely in your way, And your foot would not stumble.
24 When you lie down, you need not be afraid. And you shall lie down and your sleep shall be sweet.
