(20) My son, keep thy father’s commandment, and forsake not the law of thy mother: (21) Bind them continually upon thine heart, and tie them about thy neck.

For the ways of man are before the eyes of the LORD, and he pondereth all his goings.

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

Happy is the man that findeth wisdom, and the man that getteth understanding.

 For the LORD giveth wisdom: out of his mouth cometh knowledge and understanding.

Turn you at my reproof: behold, I will pour out my spirit unto you, I will make known my words unto you.

Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies.

Every word of God is pure: he is a shield unto them that put their trust in him.

 In the transgression of an evil man there is a snare: but the righteous doth sing and rejoice.

Whoso causeth the righteous to go astray in an evil way, he shall fall himself into his own pit: but the upright shall have good things in possession.
