19 (A)The Lord by wisdom founded the earth;
by understanding (B)he established the heavens;
20 by his knowledge (C)the deeps broke open,
and (D)the clouds drop down the dew.

keep sound wisdom and discretion,
22 and they will be (F)life for your soul
and (G)adornment for your neck.
23 (H)Then you will walk on your way securely,
(I)and your foot will not stumble.
24 (J)If you lie down, you will not be afraid;
when you lie down, (K)your sleep will be sweet.
