Proverbs 3:3, 3:5-8; 3:33
Let love and faithfulness never leave you;
bind them around your neck,
write themon the tablet of your heart.
Then you will win favor and a good name
in the sight of God and man.
Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding;
in all your ways acknowledge him,
and he will make you paths straight.
33: The Lord's curse is on the house of the wicked,
but he blesses the home of the righteous.
He mocks proud mockers
but gives grace to the humble.
The wise inherit honor,
but fools he holds up to shame.
I almost made myself the fool; but I prayed about it and found these scriptures to humble me greatly; praise the Lord, for he saved me from being a fool this time.
