21. My son, hold on to sound wisdom and discernment, do not let them out of your sight.
22. They will be life to your soul, and an ornament to grace your neck.
23. Then you will walk on your way in safety, and your foot will not stumble.
24. When you lie down, you will not be afraid; when you lie down, your sleep will be sweet.
25. Have no fear of sudden terror, or of the devastation of the wicked when it comes.
