Proverbs 3:19-24
Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
God’s Wisdom in Creation
19 The Lord by wisdom founded the earth;
by understanding he established the heavens;
20 by his knowledge the deeps broke forth,
and the clouds drop down the dew.
The True Security
21 My son, keep sound wisdom and discretion;
let them not escape from your sight,[a]
22 and they will be life for your soul
and adornment for your neck.
23 Then you will walk on your way securely
and your foot will not stumble.
24 If you sit down,[b] you will not be afraid;
when you lie down, your sleep will be sweet.
