Lean not on your own understanding.

Lean not on

your own

understanding.


Proverbs 3:5


  

 

My son, do not forget my teaching, 

but keep my commands in your heart 

for they will prolong your life many years 

and bring you peace and prosperity. 

 

Let love and faithfulness never leave you; 

bind them around your neck, 

write them on the tablet of your heart. 

Then you will win favor and a good name 

in the sight of God and humankind. 

 

Trust in the LORD with all your heart 

and lean not on your own understanding 

In all your ways submit to him, 

and he will make your paths straight. 

 

Do not be wise in your own eyes; 

fear the LORD and shun evil. 

This will bring health to your body 

and nourishment to your bones. 

 

Honor the LORD with your wealth, 

with the firstfruits of all your crops 

Then your barns will be filled to overflowing, 

and your vats will brim over with new wine. 

 

Proverbs 3:1-10
