Proverbs 3:7-12

New King James Version

⁷ Do not be wise in your own ^(A)eyes;
Fear the Lord and depart from evil.
⁸ It will be health to your ^[a]flesh,
And ^(B)strength^[b] to your bones.

^9 (C)Honor the Lord with your possessions,
And with the firstfruits of all your increase;
^10 (D)So your barns will be filled with plenty,
And your vats will overflow with new wine.

^11 (E)My son, do not despise the chastening of the Lord,
Nor detest His correction;
¹² For whom the Lord loves He corrects,
^(F)Just as a father the son in whom he delights.
