Proverbs 3:5-16 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

5. Trust Yahweh with all your heart; do not lean toward your own understanding.

6. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will straighten your paths.

7. Do not be wise in your own eyes; fear Yahweh and retreat from evil.

8. There shall be healing for your flesh, and refreshment for your body.

9. Honor Yahweh from your substance, and from the firstfruits of all that will come to you,

10. and your barns shall be full of plenty, and your vats shall burst with new wine.

11. Do not despise the discipline of Yahweh, my child. Do not be weary of his reproof

12. because whomever Yahweh will love, he will rebuke, as a father delights in his son.

13. Happy is the one who finds wisdom, and one who obtains understanding.

14. For her income is better than the income of silver, and her revenue than that of gold.

15. She is more precious than rubies, and all your desires shall not compare with her.

16. Length of days is in her right hand; in her left hand are riches and honor.
