Proverbs 3:21-26

New Century Version

²¹ My child, hold on to wisdom and good sense.
    Don’t let them out of your sight.
²² They will give you life
    and beauty like a necklace around your neck.
²³ Then you will go your way in safety,
    and you will not get hurt.
²⁴ When you lie down, you won’t be afraid;
    when you lie down, you will sleep in peace.
²⁵ You won’t be afraid of sudden trouble;
    you won’t fear the ruin that comes to the wicked,
²⁶ because the Lord will keep you safe.
    He will keep you from being trapped.
