Book 20 : PROVERBS - Chapter 004

004:001

For I give you good doctrine, forsake ye not my law

004:002

For I was my father's son, tender and only beloved in the sight of my mother

004:003

He taught me also, and said unto me, Let thine heart retain my words: keep my commandments, and live

004:004

Get wisdom, get understanding: forget it not; neither decline from the words of my mouth

004:005

Forsake her not, and she shall preserve thee: love her, and she shall keep thee

004:006

Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding

004:007

Exalt her, and she shall promote thee: she shall bring thee to honour, when thou dost embrace her

004:008

She shall give to thine head an ornament of grace: a crown of glory shall she deliver to thee

004:009

Hear, O my son, and receive my sayings; and the years of thy life shall be many

004:010

I have taught thee in the way of wisdom; I have led thee in right paths

004:011

When thou goest, thy steps shall not be straitened; and when thou runnest, thou shalt not stumble

004:012

Take fast hold of instruction; let her not go: keep her; for she is thy life

004:013

Enter not into the path of the wicked, and go not in the way of evil men

004:014

Avoid it, pass not by it, turn from it, and pass away

004:015

For they sleep not, except they have done mischief; and their sleep is taken away, unless they cause some to fall

004:016

For they eat the bread of wickedness, and drink the wine of violence

004:017

But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day

004:018

The way of the wicked is as darkness: they know not at what they stumble

004:019

My son, attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my sayings

004:020

Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart

004:021

For they are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh

004:022

Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life

004:023

Put away from thee a froward mouth, and perverse lips put far from thee

004:024

Let thine eyes look right on, and let thine eyelids look straight before thee

004:025

Ponder the path of thy feet, and let all thy ways be established

004:026

Turn not to the right hand nor to the left: remove thy foot from evil
