    3:1 My son! my law forget not, And my commands let thy heart keep,

    3:2 For length of days and years, Life and peace they do add to thee.

    3:3 Let not kindness and truth forsake thee, Bind them on thy neck, Write them on the tablet of thy heart,

    3:4 And find grace and good understanding In the eyes of God and man.

    3:5 Trust unto Jehovah with all thy heart, And unto thine own understanding lean not.

    3:6 In all thy ways know thou Him, And He doth make straight thy paths.

    3:7 Be not wise in thine own eyes, Fear Jehovah, and turn aside from evil.

    3:8 Healing it is to thy navel, And moistening to thy bones.

    3:9 Honour Jehovah from thy substance, And from the beginning of all thine increase;

    3:10 And filled are thy barns [with] plenty, And [with] new wine thy presses break forth.

    3:11 Chastisement of Jehovah, my son, despise not, And be not vexed with His reproof,

    3:12 For whom Jehovah loveth He reproveth, Even as a father the son He is pleased with.

    3:13 O the happiness of a man [who] hath found wisdom, And of a man [who] bringeth forth understanding.

    3:14 For better [is] her merchandise Than the merchandise of silver, And than gold -- her increase.

    3:15 Precious she [is] above rubies, And all thy pleasures are not comparable to her.

    3:16 Length of days [is] in her right hand, In her left [are] wealth and honour.

    3:17 Her ways [are] ways of pleasantness, And all her paths [are] peace.

    3:18 A tree of life she [is] to those laying hold on her, And whoso is retaining her [is] happy.

    3:19 Jehovah by wisdom did found the earth, He prepared the heavens by understanding.

    3:20 By His knowledge depths have been rent, And clouds do drop dew.

    3:21 My son! let them not turn from thine eyes, Keep thou wisdom and thoughtfulness,

    3:22 And they are life to thy soul, and grace to thy neck.

    3:23 Then thou goest thy way confidently, And thy foot doth not stumble.

    3:24 If thou liest down, thou art not afraid, Yea, thou hast lain down, And sweet hath been thy sleep.

    3:25 Be not afraid of sudden fear, And of the desolation of the wicked when it cometh.

    3:26 For Jehovah is at thy side, And He hath kept thy foot from capture.

    3:27 Withhold not good from its owners, When thy hand [is] toward God to do [it].

    3:28 Say not thou to thy friend, `Go, and return, and to- morrow I give,' And substance with thee.

    3:29 Devise not against thy neighbour evil, And he sitting confidently with thee.

    3:30 Strive not with a man without cause, If he have not done thee evil.

    3:31 Be not envious of a man of violence, Nor fix thou on any of his ways.

    3:32 For an abomination to Jehovah [is] the perverted, And with the upright [is] His secret counsel.

    3:33 The curse of Jehovah [is] in the house of the wicked. And the habitation of the righteous He blesseth.

    3:34 If the scorners He doth scorn, Yet to the humble He doth give grace.

    3:35 Honour do the wise inherit, And fools are bearing away shame!
