Proverbs 3:19-30

¹⁹The Lord by wisdom hath founded the earth, hath established the heavens by prudence.

²⁰By his wisdom the depths have broken out, and the clouds grow thick with dew.

²¹My son, let not these things depart from thy eyes: keep the law and counsel:

²²And there shall be life to thy soul, and grace to thy mouth.

²³Then shalt thou walk confidently in thy way, and thy foot shall not stumble:

²⁴If thou sleep, thou shalt not fear: thou shalt rest, and thy sleep shall be sweet.

²⁵Be not afraid of sudden fear, nor of the power of the wicked falling upon thee.

²⁶For the Lord will be at thy side, and will keep thy foot that thou be not taken.

²⁷Do not withhold him from doing good, who is able: if thou art able, do good thyself also.

²⁸Say not to thy friend: Go, and come again: and tomorrow I will give to thee: when thou canst give at present.

²⁹Practise not evil against thy friend, when he hath confidence in thee.

³⁰Strive not against a man without cause, when he hath done thee no evil.
