7Don’t be wise in your own eyes. Fear Adonai , and depart from evil.
8It will be health to your body, and nourishment to your bones.
9Honor Adonai with your substance, with the first fruits of all your increase:
10so your barns will be filled with plenty, and your vats will overflow with new wine.
11My son, don’t despise Adonai ’s discipline, neither be despondent when he corrects you:
12for whom Adonai 'ahav ·affectionately loves·, he reproves; even as a father reproves his son in whom he delights.
13Happy is the man who finds wisdom, the man who gets understanding.
