7Be not wise in thine own eyes; Fear the LORD, and depart from evil.
8It shall be health to thy muscles, And moisture to thy bones.
9Honor the LORD with thy substance, And with the first-fruits of all thy increase;
10So shall thy barns be filled with plenty, And thy vats overflow with new wine.
11My son, despise not the correction of the LORD, Nor be impatient under his chastisement!
12For whom the LORD loveth he chasteneth, Even as a father the son in whom he delighteth.
13Happy the man who findeth wisdom; Yea, the man who getteth understanding!
14For the profit thereof is greater than that of silver, And the gain thereof than that of fine gold.
15More precious is she than pearls, And none of thy jewels is to be compared with her.
