Proverbs 3:1-7

¹My son, do not forget what I have taught you. Keep my commands in your inner being,

²because if you obey them you will live a long time and things will go well for you

³Always faithfully love others and ◄be faithful/do what you say that you will do►; doing those things will cause others to be pleased with you; it will be as though you are wearing a beautiful necklace. Keep those things in your mind/inner being.

⁴If you do, God and people will approve of you and think highly of you MTY.

⁵Trust in Yahweh completely, and do not rely on what you yourself understand.

⁶Always allow him to lead you. If you do that, he will ◄show you the right path/direct your life►.

⁷Do not be proud of being wise. Instead, revere Yahweh and turn away from doing evil.
