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

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

 Let not mercy and truth forsake thee: bind them about thy neck; write them upon the table of thine heart:

(4) If thou seekest her as silver, and searchest for her as for hid treasures; (5) Then shalt thou understand the fear of the LORD, and find the knowledge of God.

My son, if sinners entice thee, consent thou not.

Open thy mouth, judge righteously, and plead the cause of the poor and needy.

If thou hast done foolishly in lifting up thyself, or if thou hast thought evil, lay thine hand upon thy mouth.

When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice: but when the wicked beareth rule, the people mourn.

The wicked flee when no man pursueth: but the righteous are bold as a lion.

Let another man praise thee, and not thine own mouth; a stranger, and not thine own lips.
