Trust the Lord
3 My son, don’t forget my teaching,
but let your heart keep my commands;(A)
2 for they will bring you
many days, a full life,[a](B) and well-being.(C)
3 Never let loyalty and faithfulness leave you.
Tie them round your neck;
write them on the tablet of your heart.(D)
4 Then you will find favour and high regard
with God and people.(E)
5 Trust in the Lord with all your heart,(F)
and do not rely on your own understanding;(G)
6 in all your ways know him,
and he will make your paths straight.(H)

For the joy that lay before him,[c] he endured the cross, despising the shame,(C) and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.
