Proverbs 3:16-22 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)

16. Long life is in her right hand;in her left, riches and honor.

17. Her ways are pleasant, and all her paths, peaceful.

18. She is a tree of life to those who embrace her,and those who hold on to her are happy.

19. The Lord founded the earth by wisdom and established the heavens by understanding.

20. By His knowledge the watery depths broke open, and the clouds dripped with dew.

21. Maintain your competence and discretion.My son, don’t lose sight of them.

22. They will be life for you and adornment for your neck.
