New Testament

Proverbs 6:21-25 New International Reader's Version (NIRV)

21. Tie them to your heart forever. Put them around your neck.

22. When you walk, they will guide you. When you sleep, they will watch over you. When you wake up, they will speak to you.

23. Your father's commands are like a lamp. Your mother's teaching is like a light. And the training that corrects you leads to life.

24. It keeps you from a sinful woman. It keeps you from the smooth tongue of a woman who commits adultery.

25. Don't hunger in your heart after her beauty. Don't let her eyes capture you.
