3:1My son, forget not my law; but let thine heart keep my commandments:
3:2For length of days, and long life, and peace, shall they add to thee.
3:3Let not mercy and truth forsake thee: bind them about thy neck; write them upon the table of thine heart:
3:4So shalt thou find favour and good understanding in the sight of God and man.
3:5Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.
3:6In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.
3:7Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the LORD, and depart from evil.
3:8It shall be health to thy navel, and marrow to thy bones.
3:9Honour the LORD with thy substance, and with the firstfruits of all thine increase:
3:10So shall thy barns be filled with plenty, and thy presses shall burst out with new wine.
8:17I love them that love me; and those that seek me early shall find me.
8:32Now therefore hearken unto me, O ye children: for blessed are they that keep my ways.
23:15My son, if thine heart be wise, my heart shall rejoice, even mine.
23:16Yea, my reins shall rejoice, when thy lips speak right things.
23:24The father of the righteous shall greatly rejoice: and he that begetteth a wise child shall have joy of him.
23:25Thy father and thy mother shall be glad, and she that bare thee shall rejoice.
29:3Whoso loveth wisdom rejoiceth his father: but he that keepeth company with harlots spendeth his substance.
