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