(A)Trust in the Lord with all your heart
And (B)do not lean on your own understanding.
In all your ways (C)acknowledge Him,
And He will (D)make your paths straight.
(E)Do not be wise in your own eyes;
(F)Fear the Lord and turn away from evil.
It will be (G)healing to your [a]body
And (H)refreshment to your bones.
(I)Honor the Lord from your wealth,
And from the (J)first of all your produce;
10 Then your (K)barns will be filled with plenty,
And your (L)vats will overflow with new wine.
11 (M)My son, do not reject the [b]discipline of the Lord
Or loathe His rebuke,
12 For (N)whom the Lord loves He disciplines,
Just (O)as a father disciplines the son in whom he delights.
