Proverbs 3 :: Hebrew Names Version (HNV)

Pro 3:1My son, don't forget my teaching; But let your heart keep my mitzvot:
Pro 3:2For length of days, and years of life, And shalom, will they add to you.
Pro 3:3Don't let kindness and truth forsake you. Bind them around your neck. Write them on the tablet of your heart.
Pro 3:4So you will find favor, And good understanding in the sight of God and man.
Pro 3:5Trust in the LORD with all your heart, And don't lean on your own understanding.
Pro 3:6In all your ways acknowledge him, And he will direct your paths.
Pro 3:7Don't be wise in your own eyes. Fear the LORD, and depart from evil.
Pro 3:8It will be health to your body, And nourishment to your bones.
Pro 3:9Honor the LORD with your substance, With the first fruits of all your increase:
Pro 3:10So your barns will be filled with plenty, And your vats will overflow with new wine.
Pro 3:11My son, don't despise the LORD's discipline, Neither be weary of his reproof:
Pro 3:12For whom the LORD loves, he reproves; Even as a father reproves the son in whom he delights.
Pro 3:13Happy is the man who finds wisdom, The man who gets understanding.
Pro 3:14For her good profit is better than getting silver, And her return is better than fine gold.
Pro 3:15She is more precious than rubies. None of the things you can desire are to be compared to her.
Pro 3:16Length of days is in her right hand. In her left hand are riches and honor.
Pro 3:17Her ways are ways of pleasantness. All her paths are shalom.
Pro 3:18She is a tree of life to those who lay hold of her. Happy is everyone who retains her.
Pro 3:19By wisdom the LORD founded the eretz. By understanding, he established the heavens.
Pro 3:20By his knowledge, the depths were broken up, And the skies drop down the dew.
Pro 3:21My son, let them not depart from your eyes. Keep sound wisdom and discretion:
Pro 3:22So they will be life to your soul, And grace for your neck.
Pro 3:23Then you shall walk in your way securely. Your foot won't stumble.
Pro 3:24When you lie down, you will not be afraid. Yes, you will lie down, and your sleep will be sweet.
Pro 3:25Don't be afraid of sudden fear, Neither of the desolation of the wicked, when it comes:
Pro 3:26For the LORD will be your confidence, And will keep your foot from being taken.
Pro 3:27Don't withhold good from those to whom it is due, When it is in the power of your hand to do it.
Pro 3:28Don't say to your neighbor, "Go, and come again, Tomorrow I will give it to you," When you have it by you.
Pro 3:29Don't devise evil against your neighbor, Seeing he dwells securely by you.
Pro 3:30Don't strive with a man without cause, If he has done you no harm.
Pro 3:31Don't envy the man of violence. Choose none of his ways.
Pro 3:32For the perverse is an abomination to the LORD, But his friendship is with the upright.
Pro 3:33The LORD's curse is in the house of the wicked, But he blesses the habitation of the righteous.
Pro 3:34Surely he mocks the mockers, But he gives grace to the humble.
Pro 3:35The wise will inherit glory, But shame will be the promotion of fools.
